Mundane life style keeps Linda content but not happy.
Media makes us the subjects, tapped into a subject position.

Book, the discourse of power. Emphasis on ideas, free thinking. The things that emerge offended by a book, get rid of it. In order to equalize everyone, get rid of things that upset them.


Film Sleeper Woody Allen
Radical, secondary contradiction, racism, sexism, and hedanistic lifestyle. Charity enables capitalist relationship to continue.
The pleasure is too much that the people aren't able to handle certain situations. There is great rigidity to art. It is driving away history and bringing forth computers. The people lack the means to communicate, they wont be able to see and have the meaning of things. The history and symbols in the film, have lost all meaning. There is an aetheistic position.
