Madison Ave and the Roman Empire

It is alleged that because millions participate in it, certain reproduction processes are necessary that inevitably require identical needs in innumerable places to be satisfied with identical goods.


-Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer (1944)



This follows the same model that was ushered in with Roman expansion of Christianity. Local geo-historically founded identity, religious and cultural practices, resulted in being swept away. Madison Ave and the Romans, have much in common.

- John Joseph Kehoe (2014)

apart from this





There is nothing here apart from this, the worded wants of ones own drowning.

Nothing for you to see, hear or taste, for our ears have all heard enough, and our tongues can taste not more, and I do believe that the gods shall soon cover the sun and no one on this twirling planet of lunatics will have use for eyes, for like ants, which are misguided by too much sugar we all shall run this silly little planet knocking into each other until the majority of us have been trampled upon and the remaining few have collapsed from exhaustion.
