“The modern state relies on narratives to maintain its legitimacy. Where economic growth and social security once provided the basis for trust, narrative has now become the real currency. The state finances, the media disseminates, and academia produces the theoretical frameworks that make it all look like science. It is this symbiosis that makes the term media fascism apt – not as a cheap insult, but as a description of structure. Fascism at its core is the union of state and corporate power under one narrative. It does not necessarily seek violence, but unity. It tolerates no competing truths, no free voices.”

On the late James Stevens Curl: ‘That architecture schools continue to this day to peddle these myths frustrated Curl more than anything. Design is taught like a religion, he concluded, where the natural and innate appreciation of beauty is knocked out of students from day one and replaced with an ideology that elevates abstraction and novelty. Young people are plied with a particular received wisdom and made to “look with their ears”’.
