Rumors of an ebola outbreak as well, but I’m 80% sure they’re fake.

Thank you so much for translating this. Wen Tiejun’s Ten Crises was such an amazing book, glad to read more by him.
Wonderful article; thanks for posting this here. Fits well within the Gothic Marxist tradition.
This is fascinating OP; I understand you’re speaking literally here, but I can also see what you’ve described above as a kind of metaphor for neurodiverse experience in general. I certainly connected with almost everything you wrote, though I’ve never thought of this kind of lens to examine interactions between folks. The neurotypical hivemind is a powerful and useful concept when trying to understand the lay of the land in modernity, so thank you for introducing me to it!
EDIT: Also kind of jealous at your ability to mindmeld on that level at all. Something to be proud of I would think. And interesting to contemplate how atomised we all are, neurotypicals included, despite being part of a weak hivemind.
Yeah Wallerstein and Arrighi to name just two would have to be on this list. Maybe even Braudel if you want the historical angle.
I’d love to help contribute to this; these kind of resources are so rare and need to be cultivated.
For real?! Fucking amazing.
