In this episode of Acid Horizon, we are joined by philosopher and writer Cameron Carsten to discuss his recent blog post, "Are We Still Able to Die?"—the first installment in his series Power as Reality. Cameron’s work delves into the nature of power as the control over reality, tracing its manifestations through domination, hegemony, and the symbolic dimensions of life and death. Drawing on thinkers like Baudrillard, Foucault, Deleuze, and Guattari, this conversation also confronts urgent questions of meaning, fulfillment, and resistance in the shadow of the emerging Trump 2.0 era.
