A sociedade paliativa é uma sociedade do curtir. Ela degenera em uma mania de curtição. O like é o signo, o analgésico do presente. Ele domina não apenas as mídias sociais, mas todas as esferas da cultura. Nada deve provocar dor. Não apenas a arte, mas também a própria vida tem de ser instagramável; ou seja, livre de ângulos e cantos, de conflitos e contradições que poderiam provocar dor. Esquece-se que a dor purifica.
