Situationism seems to become a mere art, the object of which is its delusion that it’s doing politics, “theory,” and no longer art!
One contradiction to bring out here is its anti-work workerism. This is to say that the situationist is largely devoted to provoking a worker’s revolution while consciously avoiding becoming a worker themselves. This contradiction is further expressed in its exacerbation, to the extent that the situationist maintains a position of being anti-bureaucratic and anti-hierarchical, although insofar as they aren’t workers but construe themselves as an avant-garde, they’re clearly under the assumption that their role is to be an intellectual leader of a political variety.
It seems that perhaps the true role of such activity should aim more for social revolution yet particularly how social revolution assists in political revolution. To see itself as a component of political revolution exclusively, appears to manifest a deep confusion.
