Revolt-53.

The revolts of 1989 overthrew boredom and
necessity. At least for a time. They put back on
the world historical agenda the limitless demand
for free statement. At least for a time. They
revealed the latent destiny of world history to
express the pure virtuality of becoming. At least
for a time, before new states cobbled themselves
together and claimed legitimacy as representations
of what revolt desired. The revolts of 1989 opened
the portal to the virtual, but the states that
regrouped around this opening soon closed it. What
the revolts really achieved was the making of the
world safe for vectoral power.
