概要

It's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. That sentence captures something true about our moment. Not that people love the current system. But that alternatives feel unthinkable.

In this episode, we explore Mark Fisher's short, sharp diagnosis of our ideological condition. Capitalist realism isn't enthusiasm for capitalism. It's the sense that there's no outside. That this is just how things work.

Fisher traces how this closure operates: through culture, through mental health, through the slow replacement of public goods with private services. The system doesn't need true believers. It just needs people who can't imagine anything else.

Written in 2009, in the aftermath of a financial crisis that changed nothing. The question: what would it take to make alternatives feel real again?
