Others the theory of the virtual class; virtual ideology; the will to virtuality; the political economy of virtual reality; prime time reports; virtual (photographic) culture; and the virtual history file.

This is garbage, and I like post-structuralism. Poorly written technofetishism that focuses exclusively on life in the global north without even a thought as to where the resources come from that enable this analysis in the first place.
