Structural evasion operates not as an episodic tactic but as a persistent reconfiguration of the relational matrices through which presence, agency, and visibility are ordinarily captured, codified, and reintegrated into extractive systems, such that the subject ceases to present itself as a stable, traceable entity within those matrices and instead occupies a dynamically shifting topology…

Non-Participation as Active De-Linking: The Systematic Suspension of Visibility, Productivity, and Legibility
Non participation, when rigorously articulated beyond the impoverished liberal framing of abstention or apathy, operates as an active de linking from the infrastructural matrices that produce visibility, productivity, and legibility as compulsory conditions of existence, such that the subject ceases to function as a compliant node within circuits of extraction that depend upon continuous disclosure,…
Setting us free from capitalism
To set us free, we need a systematic suspension of visibility, productivity, and legibility enacted through targeted disengagement across all the many layers this capitalist society deploys to control us.
Displacement of Value
As usual, I have chosen a sentence from today's Book of the Day, to make a deeper analysis. Financial capitalism is based on the deterritorialisation of value and the autonomisation of the process of valorisation from the physical process of production.The Uprising: On Poetry and Finance, by Franco "Bifo" Berardi.

As a young militant he…
Refusal as Ontological Severance: The Irreversibility of Withdrawing Consent from Extractive Orders
Refusal emerges not as a gesture within the field of power but as a rupture of the field itself, an ontological severance that withdraws the very substrate upon which extractive systems depend for their continuity, such that what appears, from within the dominant epistemic regime, as absence, disengagement, or even passivity, reveals itself, upon closer…

GGSC Happiness Calendar – April 2026
Here you are also the GGSC's Happiness Calendar for this month. The proposed topic is being happy by caring for oneself in tough times. As usual,I leave you some personal considerations in the following. There exists a persistent ideological manoeuvre within late capitalism whereby care is recoded as indulgence, resilience as silent endurance, and suffering…
Reading as Praxis within and against Capitalist Regimes of Knowledge Extraction, Commodification, and Control
To articulate reading as praxis within and against capitalist regimes of knowledge extraction, commodification, and control requires an immediate displacement of the dominant epistemic fiction that treats reading as a neutral, individualised, and instrumentally oriented activity, replacing it with a rigorously situated understanding of textual engagement as a materially embedded, historically conditioned, and politically charged…
