Here we present a reflection that seeks to show the fundamental problems of the cult of spontaneity that is prevalent not only in the political sphere but also in the academic. I attempt to show how the politics of the present fundamentally needs a moment of theoretical pause, not only to analyze its own scope, but also to discover the means most suited to its own political intentions. This reflection on political praxis also gives rise to reflections on moral philosophy in general, specifically on the material possibilities of moral action in the social context of capitalism.
