How come he hasn't been memed to death online like Hegel, Deleuze or Land?Is he not enough of a philosopher?
>>25417304because his philosophy doesn’t promise you anything>HegelYou will receive la absolute knowing>Deleuze You will receive creative puissance and you get to feel special for having read capitalism and schizophrenia >LandYou receive the esoteric truth of accelerationism that will make you more sophisticated than the other chuds>Baudrillard You will realize that your entire life is a LARP.
>>25417304There's that one schizoposter twitter account and the whole constellation of 2deep4u 'le simulacra' instagram meme posters but engaging with his actual work takes too much background reading for the avg zoomer. Late Baudrillard also doesn't really have a coherent thesis beyond thinking science fiction is cool (which is true) and Domestic Terrorism Is Based, Actually. I only really read him when I was insanely high a couple years ago so all of this is conjecture and probably not true
>>25417304Wut, this dude was constantly getting memed before Deleuze got over huge with the normalfag crowd because of his cool imagery. Whenever anybody even scrapes past the concept of simulation theory you'll have a 100 drones going ahah muh baudrillard, only back in the day they used fuckin doge edits instead of jaks
>>25417304>hegel Nobody actually reads this. He's memed so people can signal their intelligence >DeleuzeMemed because he's been trendy in the academies for 30 years now>landJewish psy op
>>25417304Baudrillard's already been memed in pop culture via the Matrix. He gets referenced a lot by artists who use his ideas as themes/concepts.
>>25417304
>>25417662You mean artists who have never read him
>>25417304simply because he has no utility for The System right now. if anything he's been obfuscated or displaced with the other names you've listed that are implanted to describe the curated structure of past, present, and future realities. hegel is satan and mindfucked western civilization so hard
>>25417304It's because he's right
>>25417304he kind of does. hyperreality and simulacra spread around in pop philosophy channels a lot. there were trendy documentary movies like adam curtis' stuff basically taking baudrillard and distilling it for the masses in an aestheticized way
>>25417304Hegel/Deleuze/Land are more wacky and abstract.
>>25417540Yeah OP is likely retarded.
>>25417304can anyone recommend any actually good translations of his work?
