A while ago I read a Nick Land essay that I can't for the life of me find again.
I swear it was noscriptd or had the words "Donut City" in the noscript. Hence why I originally read it on a whim because it had such an odd name.
The main thesis had to do with the concept of the "Bad Neighborhood" and how inner city corruption leads to a kind of social rot that pushes everything "good" to the periphery. Hence the term "Donut City" being a city where the core is unsalvageable but the suburbs are perfectly fine.
What was of interest to me was that Donut Cities create "Donut People". I.e. a person whose "good on the outside" but rotten in the core.
It was such an intriguing thesis that I wanted to read it again but for the life of me I can't find it. Am I tripping? Is anyone else familiar with Nick Land know what I'm talking about?
Maybe I mixed up Land with another author when I was reading random Ccru essays? Has anyone heard of this concept before?
Am I going crazy? 🫠🫠🫠

“A crowd thinks in images, and the image itself calls up a series of other images, having no logical connection with the first. A crowd scarcely distinguishes between the subjective and the objective. It accepts as real the images invoked in its mind, though they most often have only a very distant relation with the observed facts. Crowds being only capable of thinking in images are only to be impressed by images.”
