Symbolic Exchange and Death (Pt. 2)

Comrade Cooper Cherry (Triple C) from the Machinic Unconscious Happy Hour podcast is back in the library for part 2 of more Big Brain Energy and unraveling the Code of the post-modern Chad, Jean Baudrillard, in Symbolic Exchange and Death.

For round 2, we talk about reproduction, the hyperreal (obvs), The Matrix, fashion, racism, death, the Death Drive, shitposting, actual shit and excrement, post-scarcity, poetry, and wrap things up.
