Breaking Ghost Stories
Morning Thoughts #199
Prepackaged, highly processed narratives! What a terrible diet they make for you! If you’re not being independently critical, your situation is critical indeed. False, retroactively constructed breaking histories are upending the meaning of every worthy statue!
Friends, we are in the midst of the quietest—and yet most complete—controlled (though somehow even more anarchic) demolition ever perpetrated: the mainstreaming of the sidestepping of human experience.
