“Why is it easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of the capitalist system?” 

A question attributed to Slavoj Žižek, a Slovenian philosopher, serves as a starting point for the development of the collection entitled ` KONTRAŬ METAVERSA KAPITALISMO ` which translates from Esperanto as “against metaverse capitalism”. The collection communicates, in counterculture, the dangers of using technology for profit, neglecting the environment and society.

   In KONTRAŬ METAVERSA KAPITALISMO the conceived future is of a Homeland that coexists with the denatured exploitation of the environment and work, promoted by a state production mode minimum, managed by an elite that concentrates income. This promotion of the end of the world and humanity evidence a chaotic and unbearable reality for outdoor locomotion, advent of planetary warming, air pollution and endemic diseases - caused by the profitable exploitation of natural resources; In addition to the inaccessibility of basic consumer goods and the survival of the majority of the population - promoted by the concentration of income, financial speculation and the precariousness of work relationships.

    The metaverse, in this reality, presents itself as the perfect opium of the end of the world, and consequently feeds this apocalyptic system with alienation. The digital universe makes it possible to create personal avatars, leisure and hyper-realistic virtual encounters, while nourishing mega-corporations selling data, helping people to be imprisoned in the virtual world, manipulated by it, and not react to the problems that make it impossible. comfortable life based on reality.
