Comedy Against Work : Utopian Longing in Dystopian Times
Work is a joke. Laughing at it is political. Humor, Groucho Marx asserted, is “reason gone mad.” For Walter Benjamin, laughter was “the most revolutionary emotion.” In a moment when great numbers of people are reevaluating their commitment to the hellscape we call “work,” what does it mean to take comedy seriously—and to turn it against work?Both philosophically brilliant and deeply personal, Comedy Against Work demonstrates how laughing about work can puncture the pretensions of tyrannical bosses while uniting us around a commitment to radically new ways of making the world together.At the same time, Lane-McKinley exposes a war at the heart of contemporary comedy between those who see comedy as a weapon for punching down and those whose laughter points to social transformation.From stand-up to sitcoms, podcasts to late night, comedy reveals our longing to subvert power, escape the prison of work, and envision the joys of a liberated world.

Is it a dystopian surveillance state or a dystopian anarchy?
It is difficult to definitively categorize the society as either a dystopian surveillance state or a dystopian anarchy without more specific information about the level of government control and societal organization. In a dystopian surveillance state, there is typically a high level of government monitoring and control over its citizens, while in a dystopian anarchy, there is a lack of government control leading to chaos and lawlessness. Depending on the balance between surveillance and anarchy in the society, it could exhibit characteristics of both or lean more towards one over the other.
