The article is devoted to the ability of capital to neutralize the anti-capitalist and anti-consumer discourse. The following kind of paradox is observed: advertising manipulates, but at the same time seeks to appeal to spiritual intentions, standardizes and at the same time offers to emphasize individuality. What was once recognized as standing in opposition to the values of consumption is turning not just into a weak ideological barrier to the spread of consumer culture, but, on the contrary, into a rich material for commerce and advertising discourse. The article analyzes the absorption that touched the image of Che Guevara and anti-capitalist youth subcultures. Commercialization covers clothing paraphernalia of protest communities. Even anti-advertising discourse is captured by consumer networks and commodified. There is a phenomenon of capitalization of protest against capitalism, consumerization of rebellion against consumerism. Scientific rationality, being integrated by capital, rises to the service of commerce and finds new methods of irrational manipulation of consciousness and absorption of protest discourse.

The article analyzes the features, dynamics and ways of creating the image of the estate in Soviet cinema on extensive material. Being on the periphery of the cultural context of the era, the estate, nevertheless, proved to be in demand by Soviet cinema. In the course of the work, two main vectors of solving the image of the estate in the tapes of the 1920–1980s were identified: negative reception of the estate and its poetization. If in the first half of the XX century the estate was presented as a product and a bulwark of class inequality, then since the 1960s (“The thaw”) the cinematic image of the estate becomes more developed, turns towards poetization. The article examines in detail the discussion around the movie “The Noble Nest” (1969, directed by A.S. Konchalovsky) as one of the landmark stages of the process of “rehabilitation” of Russian manor culture.
