“The modern, capitalism-driven imperative to become masters of our own lives leads to personal and social paralysis. We are obsessed with the impossible ideal of perfection and with others’ regard for us to a point that’s politically de-mobilizing: obsessed with the idea of personal betterment, we ignore social change.
