This philosophical piece from "Philosophics" explores Yanis Varoufakis's perspective on contemporary society, contrasting it with Guy Debord's concept of the Spectacle. The author suggests that Debord identified our alienation through pervasive imagery but offered no solution. Varoufakis, however, argues we have moved beyond the Spectacle into "Technofeudalism," where digital platforms exert control through rent and surveillance, effectively resolving Zeno's paradox of endless critique by asserting the system has already fundamentally changed. The article posits that naming this new reality is crucial for developing strategies to overcome it.https://philosophics.blog/2025/04/17/varoufakis-solves-zenos-paradox/
