The disaster of history is the incessant pacification of all that resists. In fact, we have no interest in producing something that would only be a new program to police straying bodies, proliferate “proper” images of thought, or peddle updated categories of surveillable subjects. Philosophy, as we understand it, is the conceptual proliferation of theoretical weapons aimed at the order of things. Anything else is mere collaboration.
