Flash mobs?

Not a bad point, except for the whole fetishizing of Action thing, which of course merely and unthinkingly mimics capital's axioms about performance and production. How about shooting the shit with friends and strangers on the porch and fucking wherever you want? And really, what kind of music do you listen to that allows passive consumption? Are you a James Taylor fan? Isn't listening also its own creation?

This is why I could never get into Debord....
