Comment on Reddit is finally entirely dead to me
yakko@feddit.uk 6 days agoI’m always happy when people bring that up, it happens too rarely. I was exposed to Discordianism as a kid, which is kind of the Idiot’s Guide version of culture jamming. I didn’t come across Guy Debord until later, when I’d already made up my mind that everything about mainstream society needed to be subverted. Sadly, it seems I’m not very good at it.

Don’t worry, Debord didn’t think he was either! He actually thought that his Situationist writing would be forgotten and that he would be remembered for his (ironically now forgotten) board game Kriegspiel. Instead Society of the Spectacle is now considered important French culture and history.

That is oddly uplifting, as a failed game designer as well.
