The US is a massive scam from top to bottom. They sell semiautomatics to do domestic mass murder, and then pay lawyers to fight the sites of mass murder, and then sell insurance so that those lawyers can be either paid or fended off. www.ft.com/content/5ad7...

Companies, political campaigns and even schools are taking out policies to shield themselves from litigation that can follow attacks

Transcript of the conversation between @keirangoddard.bsky.social and me at the @londonreviewbookshop.co.uk earlier this summer. Listen here: www.londonreviewbookshop.co.uk/podcasts-vid... And/or read here: www.patreon.com/reproutopia/...

Keiran: And I think that there’s traces of that in all of the essays. And I know I’ve said this to you personally, but there’s something about the way you approach any topic, pretty much, it seems, where you assume in advance that there’s this kind of sort of promise of communism in it. You know, it almost doesn’t matter what you’re analyzing. It’s like: I can find it! You know? And I wondered how much of that is temperamental and how much of it is deliberately prefigurative? Or if it’s at all possible to unpick those two things.

Sophie: You just reminded me of the TikTok where the woman says, “I love soup. You mean to tell me you hid a little bit of food in a bunch of water? I’ll find it!!” I guess that is kind of me, isn’t it: with the desire for communism-in-everything.

It’s true, I can actually watch an episode of Love Island and be like, “Aha! the desire for communism.”

But I’m right, though.

Keiran: Yeah. No doubt.

You can and should point out that police killing people daily is the "norm" in America. But that doesn't mean you *accept* the normalization of this violence and the way some people rush to smugly point these things out contributes to collective fatigue. Your horror has been stolen from you.
