This seems well written as an announcement, a manifesto, a call to action, ect.
Normally such things involve a context of terrorism or propaganda campaigns. However, if you intend to write political theory I suggest working on your rhetoric; taking notes and re-writing bits of texts while reading other theory helps with that immensely. The point here is to use the big words as a tool for compressing ideas into extremely concise, although dense, observations and analogies. You don't have to write theory though.

This. "Survivor" is literally the last great work of fiction I read before social media (& the internet in general) numbed my will to such an extent that I can no longer bring myself to pick up a book. Even now, I have a copy of "Pygmy" sitting here (dragged it out for no other reason than I thought its subject matter timely, & therefore an appropriate catalyst to get back into reading) though even under the crushing drudgery of lockdown, I am barely inclined to so much as glance at its dusty front cover.
I honestly never thought a time would come when escaping into the pages of another world, or into someone else's fictional life as a means of escaping my own, would seem like a chore. Pathetic. Fuck this fucking world.
And what ever happened to Palahniuk anyway?

Of course it seems like a chore. There's only so much you can read of pre-millenial literature before you want something new, but the problem is that millenial authors are fucking abysmal. They are incapable of writing anything that isn't:
>DRUMPF! SJWS!
>FUCK CHAD/STACY!
>ADULTING IS HARD LOL
>What if we took something like Jane Eyre or Pride and Prejudice and put in ZOMBIES or VAMPIRES lol
>We're not jealous of zoomers. Honest. We're not. We don't resent them for doing what our generation failed to do, like have actual lives, creativity and actually protesting en masse on the streets instead of posting for updoots and (You's).
>Dude, boomers are such pussies. Like, why did they get shot standing up for what they believed in at Kent State when they could've just stayed home, saved lives, and sent a strongly worded letter to their congressperson like we do?
>BRITISH AUTHOR (Rowling) BAD!
>How do you do, fellow memers?
>I have no historical perspective at all, so here's why 2020 is the WORST YEAR EVER OMG!
>What if we took generic YA novel #9419 and blackwashed it? Don't bother changing anything but the skin color of the MC? Genius! (Same applies for so called LGBT literature)
>GENDER WAR NOW! Nevermind that I am an unwashed, fat fuck who has too high standards because I refuse to believe I could be anything less than great.

Remember pic related? The Soviet censors did not allow it to be published, but did Pasternak just give up and whine about being deplatformed like a little bitch?
>Pasternak sent several copies of the manuscript in Russian to friends in the West. In 1957, Italian publisher Giangiacomo Feltrinelli arranged for the novel to be smuggled out of the Soviet Union by Sergio D'Angelo. Upon handing his manuscript over, Pasternak quipped, "You are hereby invited to watch me face the firing squad."
Also, notice how he made a timeless piece of literature, not obnoxious cringy I WAS ONLY PRETENDING TO BE RETARDED LOL nonsense that will be mercifully buried and forgotten like the ET game for Atari.
