Kindle Notes & Highlights
They are not infections, but infarctions; they do not follow from the negativity of what is immunologically foreign, but from an excess of positivity.
Hybridization—which dominates not just current culture-theoretical discourse, but also the feeling of life in general—stands diametrically opposed to immunization. Immunological hyperaesthesis would not allow hybridization to occur in the first place.
Burnout syndrome occurs when the ego overheats, which follows from too much of the Same. The hyper in hyperactivity is not an immunological category. It represents the massification of the positive.
to Giorgio Agamben, homo sacer stands for absolutely expendable life.
