“The demons in your head are real and you can kill them”

This is fascinating from Richard Seymour on the addictive cycles of threat and release, the excitement of being able to hit back at phobic objects, underpinning the contemporary far-right.

Anger as a vector of meaning in a dying world which can’t provide the parameters in which a meaningful life would be possible.
