Comparing Bojack Horseman to the NBC philosophical comedy The Good Place, this video critiques Postmodernism and Deconstruction while trying to answer Max Horkheimer’s objection to Enlightenment Reason and find a philosophical foundation for a new universalism. Excerpts from Mark Fisher’s books Capitalist Realism and Ghosts of My Life set the terms for this one.

Zero Books Manifesto:
The modern world is at an impasse. Disasters scroll across our smartphone screens and we’re invited to like, follow or upvote, but critical thinking is harder and harder to find. Rather than connecting us in common struggle and debate, the internet has sped up and deepened a long-standing process of alienation and atomization.
Zer0 Books wants to work against this trend.
