      If not peak Deleuze, then peak positivity, and high-time to throw off the overbearing weight of contemporary theory's obsession with affirmation: "Affirm. Enhance. Maximize. Optimize. Expand." http://cultureandcommunication.org/galloway/peak-deleuze-and-the-red-bull-sublime …

      Looking forward to any comments / counterpoints! I’d say at least it’s a step up from a similar article he wrote a couple years prior.

      I really don't mind Galloway's call for the exploration of potentials of negativity, but I think he is wrong when he claims that Deleuze's idea of affirmation excludes the negative. If that would be the case affirmation would mean nothing but the acceptance of things as they are.

      In N&P Deleuze goes great lengths to argue that affirmation understood as such is 'the yes of the ass', which amounts to affirming the state of things shaped by the reactive forces.

      For Deleuze, affirmation includes creation of new values, which is accompanied by destruction of the established values.

      In N&P, D. dismisses negativity only as an autonomous force, which manifests itself in the will to nothingness. Affirmative masters still injure slaves, but their negativity is secondary as they initially do so only to satisfy their instincts.

      I think these two beautiful passages from Desert Islands give a good idea of the nature of negativity in Deleuzepic.twitter.com/f9dQJCXeB0

      Strongly agreed. Galloway misses the mark when speaking of Deleuze as the source of the problem: rather, his issue is so clearly with a particular strand of Deleuzian thought (“peak new materialism”, perhaps). Much appreciate the links too; Larval Subject is a treasure trove.

          I think you're probably right. The way I see it Deleuze merely wants to avoid negativity without creation, i.e. the reproachful negativity of ressentiment. In a way, Galloway's critique of Deleuze seems to be just that.
