Detox | An Anxious Daffodil | | Mada Masr: Let’s start with a prophecy; soon our planet will be ruled by communism, after the end of the virus’s reign. This is what communist philosopher Slavoj Žižek believes, at least. In his latest book, Pandemic! (2020), he anticipates that “measures that appear to most of us today as ‘communist’ will have to be considered on a global level — coordination of production and distribution will have to take place outside the coordinates of the market.” The transformation will be spearheaded by none other than conservative politicians like Boris Johnson and Donald Trump, he says.
