"The neoliberal politics of time does away with the time of the Other, which it considers an unproductive time. The totalization of the time of the self goes hand in hand with the totalization of production, which affects all areas of contemporary life and leads to the total exploitation of humans...Unlike the time of the self, which isolates and separates us, the time of the Other creates a community. It is therefore a good time." 

But we've lost it!!! Our society is a deaf society, incapable of truly listening and accepting/welcoming "the Other." Online is a vast chamber of mirrors. It seeks to reflect only ourselves and our profiles. (What am I doing writing this review lol). This was one of his best, imo, but maybe I just liked this topic the most.
