The history of the 21st century is a history of leftist failure and revolutionary demobilization. Simultaneously, it is the story of an advancing, evolving Megamachine which makes life traumatic and joyless for the average citizen-consumer-worker. The perverse power systems which sustain a power elite have evolved in strange ways, manufacturing a control apparatus which keeps individuals feeble, disoriented, and depressed. Oppression has become simultaneously exotic and banal.

Each summer, the weather is hotter, and each summer, people seem to care less. We suck our vapes and stare at our phones as oblivion creeps closer. 

​

Revolutionary movements have grown into sites of radical demobilization. This is largely due to their failures to extirpate political hierarchy and moral traditionalism from their operating procedures. Movements mean little today. In 2020, hundreds of thousands took to the streets to protest police brutality, and police violence has increased or stagnated in each year since. The lesser evils we are asked to stomach each election cycle become progressively more distasteful. There are appear to be no serious options for creating radical change. 

​​

Unfreedom is a bold set of ideas which seeks to rewrite the social drives that breed misery and ecological devastation. Beginning with a rejection of Free Will and Moral Responsibility and proposing a program based on human fulfillment and systems thinking, it is situated to counter the atomizing, pseudo-magical logic of Late Capitalism.
