In Remembrance…
“ Capitalism has a way of…penetrating places it should not. I would like to draw a line around the most intimately human things and say that they are not and never will be for sale for any price. Keep your fucking capitalism out of my body.” (via squashed)
What we have here is a rearguard defense of something that was lost a long time ago. The human body was commodified decades ago. So while I appreciate the sentiment, I cannot help but fear that we will never again be able to speak of “intimately human things” without resorting to a lengthy sigh and cynical laughter.
