A batch of the best highlights from what J's read, .
Everything but climate change and ecological collapse, in 20 years, will seem like a sideline, completely meaningless. Any politician who isn’t taking it seriously and preparing for it shouldn’t be in office. Macron was not doing enough, not even close. Le Pen wants to make it worse.
This is what Nietzsche meant by the eternal return, not some metaphysical presence that animates the present through a will to reincarnation, but rather that we as a species are very good at falling back into similar patterns when historical conditions are not transcended or overcome, our social contradictions unresolved. Musk’s Nazi salute doesn’t confirm the Nazi thesis, but his ironic appropriation of a new way to trigger the libs produces meaning they will not be able to control, and which augers a future that could be even darker than it was last time.
