Virtual Violence: Vectoralist Class Warfare and Abstract Antagonism
2022
In 2022, my essay Virtual Violence: Vectoralist Class Warfare and Abstract Antagonism was published in Kernel Magazine. In the essay, I put the philosophy of McKenzie Wark, Slavoj Žižek, feminist scholars, Web3 participants, and the techno-skeptical in conversation with one another to define what violence means in this new virtual, vectorlist era. From there, I analyzed the Web3 ecosystem, a battlefield on the frontlines of this disguised evolution, in order to see how “virtual violences” shape our lived reality to ensure that power remains in the hands of a finite elite.
