== The Matirx or the Two Sides of Pervsion (6.2, pp. 213)==

"What if ideology resides in the bery belief that outside the closure of the finite universe, there is some 'true reality' to be entered." (pp. 214)

"arriving at the end of the universe" (pp. 214)
- a premodern notion we return to repeatedly in fantasy and science fiction
- are we retruning to a"renewed medieval pre-perspective universe?"

"the big other"
- the subject never fully dominates the effects of his acts. 
- "beneath the chaos of market, the degradation of morals, and so on, there as the pruposeful strategy of the Jewish plot". 

false claim of The Matrix
- "behind the incomplete/inconsistent reality we know, there is another reality with no deadlock of impossibility structuring it". 
- Also, a sort of New Age wish, linking to Nirvana or one mind (Gaya) theory

Conspiracism 
- "The problem is not that Ufologists and conspiracy theorists regress to a paranoiac attitude unable to accept (social) reality, the problem is that this reality itself is becoming paranoiac." (pp. 219)
