Workers of the world unite, we have nothing to lose but our chains! But just who is this ‘we’? How do we identify the proletariat, the revolutionary subject, and how does the proletariat identify itself in the midst of an intensifying threat of economic precarity and capitalist immiseration. This ‘we’, to quote Wilhelm Weitling, is a tricky question. Today we’re taking a dive into Historical Materialism with the latest book in the ...

Neurodiversity is on the rise. Awareness and diagnoses have exploded in recent years, but we are still missing a wider understanding of how we got here and why.

Nicolas de Warren joins Acid Horizon for a live event at Webster's Bookstore and Cafe in State College, PA.
Our quest for immortality is complete: we will live forever through our trash. Our penchant for plastic disposables in particular presents us with a future in which forms of life will remain haunted by human waste. What does the legacy of 'homo detritus' mean for humanity and the world?
