la “deserotización” de la vida cotidiana es el peor desastre que la humanidad pueda conocer. Es que se pierde -explica- la empatía, la comprensión erótica del otro
Deserotización en términos de Baudrillard: objeto práctico. Relación de mutación. “La felicidad es subersiva”

percepción del cuerpo del otro como continuación sensible de mi cuerpo. Aquello que los budistas llaman la gran compasión, esto es: la conciencia del hecho de que tu placer es mi placer y que tu sufrimiento es mi sufrimiento. La empatía. Si nosotros perdemos esta percepción, la humanidad está terminada; la guerra y la violencia entran en cada espacio de nuestra existencia y la piedad desaparece. Justamente esto es lo que leemos cada día en los diarios: la piedad está muerta porque no somos capaces de empatía, es decir, de una comprensión erótica del otro.
Desastre, pérdida de empatía, de comprensión erótica del otro.

But is Trump's position the result of an excess of something, as Baudrillard is arguing? Or is this just the facile observation that Trump's accomplishments are not really that real.

he entire universe as the infinitely multiplied copy of one original pic-ture-man.
I'm trying to remember Baudrillard's treatise on simulacra, because it sounds like Nietzsche's describing something very similar.
