Abstract
The work expresses the current state of the concept of “Us” in light of its latest updates. The Us is clothed in the image of the Boat, which allows us to understand the human in its very material becoming and in the multiplicity of mixtures that traverse the radical finitude of reality in the midst of the deliquescent capitalism of our time. With the Boat of Us, we unashamedly embrace the contingency that constitutes us and, at the same time, as gatekeepers of the neurotic web of capitalism, we evade it and betray it again and again.
