RT @nick_routledge: @TaraAnnThieke The epistemological basis of the Extinction Tyranny, isn't it? A mode of perception and action fundamentally unhinged from concrete reality. No wonder the prophets speak of 'apocalypsis' as a totalizing flip-flop in experience of coherence, authority, significance and legitimacy.

@antoniogm 1/ N.O. Brown, succinct on ‘apocalypsis’, the moment of vision and decision: “To see through this show; to see the invisible reality; to put an end to politics. The revolution, the revelation, the apocalypse, is vision; which pronounces a last judgment; and brings about the end.”
