Simulacra and Simulation: Baudrillard, Techno-Fascism, and the Tyranny of Advertising

Cameron Carsten is back with us to enjoy an exploration of Jean
Baudrillard’s concept of “absolute advertising” and its
transformation of communication, desire, and the public
sphere.  This discussion addresses the rise of
techno-fascism and the symbolic saturation of everyday life in
view of Baudrillard's 'Simulacra and Simulation'. What happens
when advertising becomes the default mode of mediation,
indistinguishable from culture itself? Together, we unravel how
content collapses into form—and how even resistance may be a
commodity.
