Скачать или смотреть Are we just doomed to a deep state?

"The message of the Epstein affair is: no state without the deep state, i.e., no state power without its obscene double." - Slavoj Zizek

But MUST every state orchestrate its own fantasy site of the most evil atrocities imaginable? Are we always doomed to a dark cabal and the grim hope that ours is kind? Or is there liberation within a properly functioning state, and it's our state, one that provides full cover for the Epstein class, that's the twisted monstrosity?

What kind of enjoyment should we advocate for instead if Epstein's evil is baked into the very system itself? Why, with Hegel, must we nevertheless insist on the power of the state rather than turn to anarchy or cynicism?

Where We've Made It Dark is a literary zombie apocalypse that imagines a true end to the state and carries us through step-by-step to who we are on the other side.
