People have been refused freedom, and its value belittled, for such a long time that now people no longer like it. They need the shallow entertainment, by means of which cultural conservatism patronizes and humiliates them, in order to summon up the strength for work, which is required of them under the arrangement of society which cultural conservatism defends. This is one good reason why people have remained chained to their work, and to a system which trains them for work, long after that system has ceased to require their labour. » Adorno, The Culture Industry “Pleasure always means not to think about anything, to forget suffering even where it is shown. Basically it is helplessness. It is flight; not, as is asserted, flight from a wretched reality, but from the last remaining thought of resistance.” — Theodor W. Adorno, Dialectic of Enlightenment: Philosophical Fragments « Works of art are ascetic and shameless; the culture industry is pornographic and prudish. It reduces love to romance... The mass production of sexuality automatically brings about its repression. » —The Culture Industry: Enlightenment as Mass Deception, Adorno and Horkheimer Entertainment is the prolongation of work under late capitalism. It is sought by those who want to escape the mechanized labor process so that they can cope with it again. — Dialectics of Enlightenment
