Deleuze’s pure immanence is a plane no domination can colonize.

Evidence

In his final work – Pure Immanence: Essays on a Life – Deleuze elevates immanence to a formula for beatitude: ‘We will say of pure immanence that it is A LIFE, and nothing else. It is not immanence to life, but the immanent that is in nothing is itself a life. A life is the immanence of immanence, absolute immanence: it is complete power, complete bliss.’ Immanence is something immanent that ‘is in nothing’ because it does not occur in something else – it exists only in itself. As such, it is the ‘immanence of immanence’. It is subject to nothing; rather, it is self-sufficient. No order of domination can be erected on this level of life’s immanence (Immanenzebene des Lebens). In contrast, Capital manifests itself as transcendence: it estranges life from itself. Immanence as life suspends this alienating relationship. — Byung-Chul Han, Psychopolitics, 193

Categorization

• XREF: Contrast with Marx: for Deleuze/Han here, alienation is transcendence estranging life from itself, not simply exploitation — parallel to the reader’s Frankfurt School notes on nature-domination vs. capitalism.
