Lots of reviews of @AntonJaegermm’s Hyperpolitics in the past few months but I have to say the latest episode of @leftofphil is the only one that seems to understand the stakes for the conjuncture we’re in https://t.co/xnYA34JkOp— matthew ellis (@matthiasellis) September 21, 2026

I think Eduardo Galeano in this piece does a great job pointing out how society tolerates inequalities. More importantly he exposes the sanitized terms we use to justify them. He juxtaposes concepts that our political and ethical dictionary would never allow together. When a++ pic.twitter.com/XJsvSNUxVY— Praxis (@praxiss) September 25, 2026

Hyperpolitics: Extreme Politicization without Political Consequences
POLITICS AFTER THE END OF THE END OF HISTORYWhat happens when politics is everywhere, yet nothing seems to change? From the abandoned dance floors of Thatcher’s London to the mass mobilizations of Black Lives Matter, Anton Jäger traces how public life has become infused with protest, spectacle, and moral urgency — while the old infrastructure of parties, unions, and civic solidarity has been hollowed out.Hyperpolitics revisits the illusions of the “end of history” and dissects the strange energies that replaced them: viral outrage, endless culture wars, and the digital rush of causes that flare and vanish overnight. Jäger shows how the promises of post–Cold War liberalism gave way to a restless, unsteady public sphere where private passions overflow into politics but rarely build enduring power.Ranging from Guy Debord and Wolfgang Tillmans to Houellebecq’s disenchanted fictions, Hyperpolitics makes sense of a world in which collective action remains fragmented and the social fabric thinner than ever. For anyone trying to grasp why our age feels so charged yet so inconsequential, this book offers a vital map through the new contradictions of our hyperpolitical moment.

Hey #DisSky - As a hobby, I'm working on an N-scale model railroad intended to be shown at shows via @group160ntrak.org. One section is inspired by Discovery Bay. It won't be 1:1 due to the format - but I want to lift as much as I can. If you have any relevant stuff, can you shoot it my way?
