culture industry as a war machine

[Arcadia]

that's the name that pagina 12 put to the charla between people I don't know... they say the expression is from Deleuze.

Some of them said that the culture oferta is too much and that the "cultural consumer" is abrumated. Well...

do you feel abrumated?

[stilltrucking]

Yes I do feel abrumated.

Sometimes I get so abrumated that I unplug my television set and sit in front of it for hours staring into the dark screen.

I checked it out in my 1981 edition of the OED, complete text. And it aint in there, could it be a typo, or just a new word? I googled it and brought up this

You can fight the truth, but it usually is not advised.
You can not have fun in a place without rules.
Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
-1 Corinthians 14:20

"I won't be beaten till I'm eaten, and I won't be eaten till I'm beaten!"
- The Gingerbread Man

And this

The senses will be super accurated, but the victims will not have the time to get used to it, so they will start to feel abrumated by all the odors, sounds, or the excess of light, even the tact of their clothes will be painful, at such a high grade that they will faint, or die by pain. I will use a wistle to induct this state.

"I won't be beaten till I'm eaten, and I won't be eaten till I'm beaten!"

I like the sound of that too.

Shin shutsu ki botsu...................ame futte ji katamaru....................Unmei no fune wo kogi

No idea of what any of that meant, but it cheered me up.
