Reading this has reminded me of the vice video on the UNICULT, love it. I've watched "The Perverts Guide to Ideology" three times, each time I get 5-10-15 minutes in and the next thing I know I open my eyes and the credits are rolling. I love Žižek's work, but this documentary has a way of slipping me into an unknowing coma each time I've attempted a watching. You know the word Fantasy is not that far of from sounding very similar to Phantasm, theay have the same etymological root, so it's not that far fetched: >From φᾰ́ντᾰσῐς (phántasis) +‎ -ῐ́ᾱ (-íā), from φᾰντᾰ́ζω (phantázō, “I make visible”), from φαίνω (phaínō, “I shine”). >From φᾰντός (phantós, “visible”) +‎ -ᾰ́ζω (-ázō), verbal adjective of φαίνω (phaínō, “I cause to appear, bring to light”). >From Proto-Hellenic pʰáňňō, from Proto-Indo-European bʰh₂nyéti, from *bʰeh₂- (“to shine”). > But if our fantasies are essentially the present moment, do we just have nightmare circling nightmare? Sounds like your ouroboros nightmare hasn't had it's line drawn and isn't the right dream to take you beyond... people love nightmares, they're really easy to market and buy, it doesn't take a "whole hell of a lot" to imagine the end of awl life on earth, you can practically do it with your I's closed, even if you are Aphantasic like me.
