Mark Fisher was right. Smartphones are a kind of portal into cyberspace. I've always been fond of Fisher's essay "Touchscreen Capture". It's very Baudrillard. There's no longer a spectacle imposed from outside. The spectacle is now internal, it constantly demands an active response from us, our playful participation as subjects. No one chooses to enter cyberspace anymore, we choose to leave it. Baudrillard had already described a "culture of tactile communication," a festival of stimuli and miniaturised tests. That's the thread Fisher picks up when he links it to the rise of the touchscreen.

"Everything becomes and recurs eternally - escape is impossible! - Supposing we could judge value, what follows? The idea of recurrence as a selective principle, in the service of strength." - Nietzsche

JD Vance sounds remarkably Schmittian here. Secularism doesn't get rid of religion, it simply replaces it. As Carl Schmitt put it, the modern state still speaks the language of theology, it has just secularized it. Secularism is another ideology, not a neutral ground.
