On the fakeness of our reality and how to fight NFT capitalism with its own crypto kitties. "We live in a reality crisis. From the explosion of ‘fake news’ and the appeal of conspiracy theories like QAnon, to the resurgence of New Age subcultures, digital astrology and the metaverse, symptoms of our ‘post-truth condition’ are everywhere to be seen: a fractured present moment when everything seems a little bit true and nothing appears entirely false. Our experiences of this crisis become more disorienting, as even agreement on the most basic facts becomes impossible despite looming world disasters. Why, then, do we take flight from consensual reality in drones, when we seem to most need it?"
