Zizek on the inevitable apocalyspe Capitalism is causing.

I will let Zizek speak for himself because his command of language and passion is far beyond my own. I do recommend you watch it though.

The future of Protest?

Arguing that traditional means of non-violent protest have been largely neutralised by the mass media, something I'm not entirely sure is true, Global Guerillas suggest a modern and high tech means of targetted, non-violent protest.

Its interesting and I definitely like the concept of taking advantage of modern means of command and control, especially mobile communications networks, to undermine a system but I also think it would be fairly easy to roll this into existing war on terror stuff and neutralise it quickly. Still, no reward without risk.
