In this episode, we chat about "Capitalist Realism" by Mark Fisher. It's like a two-person book club that you can listen in on? More seriously, we talk about Fisher's argument about mental health and its direct correlation with capitalism. trigger warning for discussions about mental health causation Fisher also has some things to say about students and the "communicative sensation-stimulus matrix" which we also dive into.
