What baffles me even more is that a Frenchman voluntarily speaks English.
Truly a respectable man

​@@koalakoala2344 jean was always so humble, even though his works challenged the ideological superstructures of our time

Surely if one exaggerates 'reality' everything seems a troubling compromise of that 'reality'? Baudrillard is something like a contemporary poet, who critiques the nature of post-modernism which itself was born out of a revolt against an over-determination of 'reality' namley modernism/structuralism ect. All that's required is perspective surely, the one thing poet-philosopher Baudrillard resists.

have you ever seen an ethiopian malnourished child?, I have not, but i have seen a lot of concerts about them , this is simulation/hyreality.

[@CadaverSplatter]

The simulacrum does not exist in reality, because it is an abstract visual representation. It is, in reality, a singularity, disconnect from the history it might aim at representing, and as such, we should be very critical of the realities offered by such abstract visual offerings.

SO it all exists in our minds?

Dforce- not too bad of a comparison with andy. However, I'd say both will have a rather successful legacy, they are as accessible as they are controversal.

A knife wound in my chest
That's how I Want to die
Just like a Catcher in the Rye."

"Normalcy" is not a word. You and anyone who uses it is, shall we say, in need of a dictionary. It is "normality."

Even if that were true, words can be changed, added, forgotten, manipulated in any way (language is made up) .Imagine if a person from 1800’s read this, “ omg

A thousand philosophies, languages, and cultures - but they ALL pump gas in their cars! Never think of the absurd, unconsciousable waste and destruction this entails - except abstractly around the dinner table? Eliminate this one primal act - the gas pump, and humanism might begin to mean something.
