all of the above

don't rely on your self prescribed indentity so much?

Thanx, I was wondering what to do.

• what to do{do}.

Thank you for that.  I am bordering on giving up in too many ways, and I needed something like that.  I got my next fix .

a corporation can own the medium
but
that has nothing to do with the effects that use of the medium can have

you can write ransom notes with government-issued stationery



the fact that we broadcast on 'their' networks means we win teh 'war'
dont it?

Sure it does, where, when, and how the product is used and why is decided by the companies.  So no, the fact that we broadcast on their networks means they get a say in things.  That is caving in.

Example, Michael Moore.  His public perception (provided by none other than the film studios who finance and market him) is bad, and SECONDARY to the points he attempts to make in his films/documentaries.

If you have ever watched the News, you'll notice that things are ultimately put in the words of the people who finance and own the media outlets.  And it is not just how they edit it, but the fact that it is shown on TV during such and such time that decides who will listen, and what they will listen to.

no

i think i am just restless and find fleeting relief in making sweeping generalizations in hopes that one of them actually rings true

plus
i got an impending doom fetish

respect to the irreverend
i dont doubt your efforts




i am impatient
i admit it

LoLzorz.  At least ur honest .  And I was a little antagonizing anyway.

I think you want some sort of immediately recognizable event to sweep you off your feet and change the world?  It sounds to me like you want a product more than a revolution.  It sounds to me like your asking for a commodity known as "change" that you won't get.

Only after revolutions occur, are studied, and become part of the past can we even begin to understand what happened.   You'll have to observe more closely to see this "change" you want like a new tv.  And you'll only know after it happened.

The product of a premeditated/random series of events hardly ever matches the predictions/perceptions of what they will be like, when it presents itself.

i guess two people can use the same tool for different purposes



a subtle difference between build and destroy

indeed. indeed. but don't downplay the effect that your unconcious has on you, and how ppl who know that WILL use that for their gain.

using the gloryhole subjects myself to such a thing.

true

fuck


the war we fight is so fucking subtle it makes me want to puke

It can be blatant too, but we loose the war when we broadcast it on the inter net, or tv.  Because it then becomes a different context, one that is controlled by Privately owned corporations.  We are in the hands of the ideals and beliefs of an elitist upper class.  They define the context that these "mediums" speak in to a certain degree.  I also believe tho that there is a more chaotic element (or it may seem chaotic to me at least) as to how this "message" is communicated through mediums, that we have no control over.

The transistor and data packet is mightier than the sword!

or they represent faster access to the collective imgination where all previous notions of 'truth' are put to question

tools of isolation?
or the real communication we all been looking for?

repression or expression?


if you dont understand a dream immediately then become familiar with dreams

The video game industry, and a good portion of the inter net are, or are becoming more so PRIVATELY OWNED.  It is the will of the those with money that u will get from the inte rnet and video games.  And yes, video games are a means of further isolating an individual.  Some might say it's brain candy, but I don't see how it brings any of us closer to the core of the human soul/mind other than seperating it from other souls/minds.

if the medium is the message
then
what do flash movies
portable video game consoles
and gloryhole forums represent?

Mindless brain numbing devices?  Tools of further "isolation?"  Sexual repression forcing individuals to seek out behavior they see as deviant?

Or they represent some strange will of the collective unconcious of man.  Their message is not an immediately recognizable thing, that is like saying you understand a dream immediately.  Unconcious material is being presented, and I have yet to see things for what they are.

[insane]

the machine relies on being able to control people

the machine is driving people insane thru entertainment and drugs (of all sorts - mental / physical)

insane people cannot be controlled


thus
the machine contributes to its demise
and
the demise of the machine is imminent

and messy

People are not becoming insane, they are being trained to act in certain ways.  These ways may seem irrational to u, but they support an upper/elitist class that still does very much control you, and your interests, for reasons of their own interest.  If you really cared you'd stop using the internet/tv/radio ("The medium is the message.").  It's use is the primary point of damage, not how you use it (content being secondary to context).

There is no demise.  All concepts of starting, beginning, and process, and all the various forms of these concepts, are subject to relativism.  The end of one tyranny (capital systems that create slaves of it's consumers, producers, and administrators) is the beginning of another.  To draw lines of distinction is only so useful, and to say that ur lines of distinction (or to even imply it through the power of "to be" verbs (ie, is, will be,)) is meaningless to me.

The demise of nothing "is" immenent, unless of course you want to look at it that way.

Google says its one of these two, though I'd much prefer the one on the left to be shot

I corrected ya mate!

Why the hate for Carrot Top, because his hair is redder than yours, and fluffier  

Carrot Top stands for everything that is wrong with America.

Even tho he is Australian?
