Thank you! I've read a little Deleuze, and I have a comrade who bases a lot of their views on Anti-Oedipus and ATP. I'm familiar with the rhizome, but its role as a criticism of "the root" is new, compelling.
Def appreciate the references, I'll try and find these sources and acquaint myself with them.
