The self-reflective performance society is 'you can, not you must.'Rather than commands or prohibitions, it lets the performance-subject define their own existence through 'freedom and initiative' - and as a result the subject exploits themselves until they completely collapse.
In this way, violence and freedom become one, and the individual plays the role of a labor camp where they are simultaneously the inmate and the guard.
I wonder... haven't I been like this too?
