Здесь можно вспомнить противоречивый диалектический материализм или коммунистическая чувственность Андрея Платонова (критического реалиста per se, согласно Георгу Лукачу), материализм презренных, который крепчает когда «без истины тело слабнет», - чувство, знакомое многим из нас, когда мы наблюдаем капитал, поглощающий мир, только-только произведенный нами на свет.

This brings me to the third moment that seems so important today, namely the possibility of seeing the discredited legacy of the socialist alternative to modernism as a weapon for a class struggle that will come into focus in future years, perhaps sooner rather than later. This does not only have to do with the return of class consciousness to outsourced, precarious content providers from the semi-periphery, who are then cultivated and exploited (i.e. institutionalized and culturalized) by the Western industry’s “non-profit” branch, whose representatives are often almost just as precarious…: a straightforward institutional critique of this intricately embedded position could never go beyond criticality. Instead, it is also the material, physical awareness of a constant double-agency: of miming socialism altera-modernism for the Western camera and the local capitalists, and actually exploring its truly alternative and emancipatory content in a materialist mimesis that does not only think but feels the transhistorical immanence of communism as a community to come. Yet such “weak messianism” of the communist imaginary is unthinkable without its concrete articulation in the everyday, retelling its tragicomedy in the prose of a contradictory reality that has not yet found its truthful voice, its consistent articulation. This would be the contradictory dialectical materialism and communist sensibility of Andrei Platonov (the critical realist per se, according to Georg Lukacs), the materialism of the subaltern, one that literally “grows weak when the truth drains from its body,” a feeling we know very well, whenever we see that capital has already appropriated the world we have just made.
