Corporate conspiracy in The Parallax View is deliberately centerless and unaccountable

Evidence

This anonymous figure with a rifle in a doorway is the closest we get to seeing the conspiracy (as) itself. The conspiracy in The Parallax View never gives any account of itself. It is never focalised through a single malign individual. Although presumably corporate, the interests and motives of the conspiracy in The Parallax View are never articulated (perhaps not even to or by those actually involved in it). … It’s not clear if the Corporation really exists – more than that, it is not clear if its aim is to pretend that it doesn’t exist, or to pretend that it does. — Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism, 141

Categorization

• XREF: Rhymes conceptually with the chapter’s central absent-center argument about global capitalism. — connects to: Capital’s center is missing yet still posited as a responsible agent — Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No…, 138; Collaboration so seamless it defies accounting invites conspiratorial explanation — Joseph E. Uscinski and Joseph M. Parent, American Conspiracy Theories, 26; Centerless corporate conspiracy may not even know its own motives — Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No…, 141
• FICTION: A conspiracy that cannot decide whether to exist or feign existence is a compelling model for opaque power in one’s own writing.
