A Change in Civilization Is Taking Place before Your Eyes

The Earthquake of the French Revolution
The False Promise of Free Trade
From Productivism to Consumerism
The Illusion of Consumable Well-Being
Consumerism Has Reduced All Values to Market Value
The Revolution of Everyday Life
Finance Capital: Money as Mains Sewerage
After Master Thinkers, Unthinking Slaves
Populist Regression, the Culture of Nothing, and the Dumbing Down of the Masses
The Man of Ressentiment: The Revenge of the Body Frustrated in Its Desires
The Last Struggle: An Endemic War between the Party of Death and Commitment to Life
A New Con Game: Ecological Neocapitalism
What Is Most Lacking Is Awareness of the Self and the World
Bidding Farewell to an Inhuman Past
Disentangling the Thread of Life from the Past That Has Hidden It

You Are the Children of an Endless Spring
