If you actually read, you would stumble across Guy Debord and The Society of the Spectacle and learn that enjoying the beach would actually class as an “authentic human experience” outside of the thrall of late capitalism (in this case, the “spectacle”)

It’s literally the opposite.

Unless you could present your reasoning...

Beaches also cost nothing to use, thus don’t inherently have anything to do with capitalism

Youve never bought bathers or sunscreen or a towel?

I've tried to read that twice but always struggle with it. You've motivated me to try again though

It’s a f***ing struggle. Full of aphorisms. I would recommend this series if you can’t be bothered:

Also check out the Partially Examined Life podcasts and the two episodes they have done on it. Highly important work and is worth understanding. Honestly, I feel that the videos and podcasts can give you what you need if you don’t like Debord’s style of writing.

really appreciated! I'll watch these tomorrow when I'm not hungover and listen the PEL podcast (didn't know they covered this). Then I'll try reading it again once I'm completely sure I grasped the basic idea. Thanks

They (beaches) mean nothing, produce nothing, have no history, no language, no thought, no purpose. If you like the beach, you are the exhausted subject of late capitalism, literally the Last Man (or Woman).

Don’t move to politics not tryna mix with them nerds
