i think it’s important to read other things that go with it.
sakai wrote it as a polemic against a specific narrative common in the american left at the time. the context is important to sakai’s workas many people nowadays misinterpret his work because they come to it in our new context.

some of its economic content is lacking but it is worth reading.
also do respect to sakai and don’t become a keyboard warrior over his text, treating it like a religious doctrine to be prosletyzed. the way some people simply throw his text around like received wisdom is so irksome. they treat it like a speech from a videogame character instead of a polemic by an actual human being written in an important context.

i wish you an empowering read comrade. don’t let it stay as words in your head but let it become actions.
