Society of the Spectacle, V

"The spectacle, as the present social organization of the paralysis of history and memory, of the abandonment of history built on the foundation of historical time, is the false consciousness of time."

Debord, Guy. Society of the Spectacle, Black & Red, 1983. #158

In the postmodern world, history is modernized through sensationalization. There is no one history - our interpretation of history is a commodity.
