OOO and Commodity Fetishism

Needless to say, I agree with Voyou. It also strikes me as just bad Marxism to claim that allowing agency to nonsentient objects is commodity fetishism. Remember that in Capital Marx explicitly says that the ideas that the table spins in its wooden brain are far weirder than if it were to dance...a point possibly lost on Derrida in Specters of Marx.

If ideology were a mere matter of belief, then poof! We'd all be in our personal utopia by now.
