The Korean-born philosopher has just published The Crisis of Narration, a book in which he argues that, today, narration is indistinguishable from advertising: people and politicians market their lives on social media. It’s all about advertising and self-promotion. He compares storytelling to storyselling — communicating through stories versus selling through stories. Quality doesn’t seem to matter — the important thing is to simply sell whatever you have to offer. We all fall into this: politicians, journalists, social media users… which results in lots of little blurbs without depth. Hence the crisis of narration.

^Ok this guy has some good takes.

"But now, this movement against sexual violence has turned into violence. It has destroyed eros, it has destroyed seduction. I know many actresses, who are very independent — and many feminists — who reject this [#MeToo movement], because it destroys seduction.”

^Ok this guy has some terrible takes wtf. He thinks the movement against sexual violence has turned into "violence"? He's sad that it has "destroyed eros"? It's not seduction if it's not consentual, that's sexual assault. What the fuck is wrong with this dude. It's disappointing that a guy who gets to spend his life thinking about things and living in relative peace still has such dogshit opinions and analysis like this. What a whiny incel train of thought to give a shit about. Fuck this guy.

Edit: for a guy calling us the "sexual organs of capital" he should really update his understanding of sexual assault, namely what it is and that its wrong.
