“Social Justice cannot succeed because it does not correspond with reality or with core human intuitions of fairness and reciprocity and because it is an idealistic metanarrative.”

“As sociedades de controle descritas pelo próprio Kafka mas também por Foucault e Burroughs, operam por meio da "postergação indefinida": a educação é um processo para toda a vida; o treinamento para o trabalho se estende por toda a vida profissional; o trabalho nunca termina porque você leva o trabalho para a casa; trabalha-se em casa e se fica em casa no trabalho etc. Uma consequência deste modo "indefinido" de poder e que a vigilância externa é sucedida pelo policiamento interno. O controle só funciona se você for cúmplice. Logo, a figura do "viciado em controle" de Burroughs: aquele que é viciado por controle, mas também, inevitavelmente, aquele que foi dominado e possuído pelo controle.”
