The Revolution of Everyday Life

"...The modern world must learn what it already knows, become what it already is, by means of a great work of exorcism, by conscious practice.

Above all I have emphasized subjective will, but nobody should criticize this until they have examined the extent to which the objective conditions of the contemporary world are furthering the cause of subjectivity day by day. Everything starts from subjectivity, and nothing stops there. Today less than ever..."
"...The man of survival is man ground up by the machinery of hierarchical power, caught in a mass of interferences, a tangle of oppressive techniques whose rationalization only awaits the patient programming of programmed minds..." by Raoul Vaneigem
