Techno-Human Regressions

Teenagers today have the same anxiety levels as the most insane psychiatric patients of the 1950s.

Suicide is rising. People are unhappy in their jobs and spend most of their time miserable.

Corporations™ and major brands® sponsor studies that say 25% of your daily calories should be sugar, instead of the healthy 7%, all signed by the most respected and influential scientists.

Science has always been sold to capitalism, and to think it exists solely for the good of society is a joke when confronted with the reality of the history of the pharmaceutical industries or the evolution of food production.

Analytic philosophy is the most rigorous philosophical study in the world despite denying the human being their own subjectivity. Whatever philosophy needs to be justified through word games instead of true human emotions (which account for 100% of our experience) is an intellectual poison that has been transformed into a fetishized commodity.

New Atheism follows the Protestant Reformation as the next capitalized destruction of any societal structure in favor of a hyper-connected, fully online, and extremely individualistic scientific community.

I hope with all my heart that when the world economy collapses, they remember that the great thinkers were right.

Laura Esteves builds worlds with words, and dismantles the ones that already exist. She writes about what hurts, what transforms and what refuses to be forgotten. She writes about love, identity and the systems that insist on defining us.

She believes literature is the only place where truth doesn't need permission. Her texts are born from the certainty that every story told with courage is an act of freedom; for whoever writes and whoever reads.
