Personally, I cannot imagine ‘containment’ of the present situation (what -is- ‘the present situation’, exactly?)… at all… but this is an apt quip that highlights a pivotal insight…
“The truth is we will never go back to “normal” or “regular” after this crisis is contained, and for that, I am grateful and inspired. Our normal and regular pace was never meant for humans, but instead, a machine-level pace fueled by capitalism’s call to create wealth by any means necessary. “
— Tricia Hersey
P.S: ‘Create wealth’ is colonial jargon for ‘obliterate the anciently conserved ecologies for the sake of a brief surge in the availability of luxuries, hoardable commodities and power among a few generations of the elite’.
