Description

This book investigates the affective and aesthetic resonances between the works of Philip K. Dick, Thomas Pynchon, and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, offering a fresh perspective on the current fascination with conspiracy theories in the United States. By drawing connections between these figures, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of conspiracy culture as a social phenomenon, challenging the conventional view that it solely threatens the status quo.
The chapters cover a range of topics, including the role of conspiracy theories in maintaining the status quo, the interplay between neoliberal economics and technology, and the political consequences of conspiracy culture's playful aspects. The author explores the epistemological crisis linked to conspiracy culture, examining how it affects science communication and the reception of information. Through an empathetic approach, the book highlights the potential for building meaningful coalitions with conspiracy theorists who share concerns about legitimate injustices.
