Summary:The anthropocene, as an object of academic discourse, becomes just another object of anthropocentric categoresis. The increasing theoretical content has no chance of achieving a significant transformation of thinking in sufficient time for it to play a relevant role in counteracting planetary degradation. Does the implicit self‑knowledge of this rapidly spreading discourse – and its frequent fatalism – predict this inability? Or maybe more: does it, in fact, remain sceptical about the chances of such counteraction, declaring a kind of catastrophic scenario? I formulate my doubts from the perspective of a literary and communication theoretician and an activist in the Extinction Rebellion movement.
