<nettime> Deeply boring age |
What Geert says hits the mark exactly. Deeply boring age is perhaps the most succint enumeration of the conceit that I have ever been in earshot of. Not only has conflict been relegated to levels which most are either unable or unwilling to participate on, but the gravity which those conflicts, or simply great individuals, produces is absent as well. Who will make the next great push toward Union? I would truly hate to think that the world has run out of pushers in its attempt to understand itself.
