Verbal Violence unravels, dissects, and shreds the language of the professional managerial class. Here the master’s house and tools are in flames, fire fanned from within, as their colosseum is turned quarry. Critically straining the email thread, the Freedom of Information Request, and the white paper through an aesthetics of anger that appropriates their last gasps at relevancy, Verbal Violence registers the absurdities of a purposeless people “just doing their job.” Hacking up neoliberal doublespeak, ideological reproduction, and progressive-except-Palestine rhetoric, La France spits it out time and time again, scheduling a meeting to verbalize the what and the who liberal democratic institutions systematically shut down. Verbal Violence confronts capitalism’s managerial style guide for saying nothing at all with the fiery and empathetic conscience of the managed, their cri de cœur cracking the straight-faced bureaucracy of our most banal communications.
