Ghost of A Flea

So, you have debt totalling trillions of dollars amidst global slump, millions of dead in wars that refuse to end and start with your own needs and repetitions of established cycle, the emergence of productive power you're scared to actually use, and you're doing this, a breakdown of ideology and proliferation of insanity throughout your own system.

Is it suicide? Will you die soon? Rebranding is the only thing that can save you, which is why you do it. The first world speaks? I'd never set foot in Teh USA, it's the wealthiest weirdsville in the world.

Fuck the dinosaur, the one with the abuse syndrome and therapy delusions and 'packies', I wouldn't touch it, and fuck R00s3v3lt and his DSM and crowd control. And say it with pride, fuck you >:)

I just saw a Papal messenger lurking outside. It's 'teh clergy' on the rampage as usual. "Get it in writing." Remember this day.

Life Virtual And The Game: Are You Sure You Want To Purge Cache?

The internet is perhaps the epicenter of the blast and base of the iceberg, and always has been. But Britain and America, the Anglo-American predicament, are certainly a special 'region of the soul', one difficult to describe without recourse to a simple list of offences. At worst I find the terms outright crypto-fascist, at best like a parade of folly. There are mentally-ill people paraded as metaphorical entertainment, people with downs with their tongues lolling out at traffic lights, cross-eyed dog handlers with S&M leads, the dark-skinned as target and weapon in rapid succession, women proud to act the soldier or prostituted as seven year old bitches, booted rapists crawling out of the woodwork, a dollar tossed to the diseased. It's Empire wherever it is, so I'm holding my own (green) tea party.

People like to boast of their choice and control, which I think are both illusions right now, and clarity of perception is certainly hard to come by.
Regardless, the basic expression for the 'irreducible' act of repetitive engineering was and still is Springer, isn't it.
I'm repeating myself, but not because I'm drunk. This is part of the precise nature of this particular catastrophe. Do you all want to end up as the mutant lesbian dwarf klansmen caught in a catfight on Springer, and is that really the extent of your conception, understanding and ability? Is this the Warrior Network, and what it's capable of?
Ten years and counting, and still banging your heads against my wall and unable to see your own.

On the one hand, this is what I called a loaded system. In a loaded meta-communicational symbolic system, the reason for the 'delusion' that everything fits, is that it does: it manufactures equivalation, and it is thus easy to assume that everything has happened before or that it is a matter of predestiny and arrive at those absolute objective fallacies. The clarity of recognising loaded symbolic sets for what they are is needed, and from this point on the only qualifiers left are the boundary of deviation and the temporal coincident.
On the other, there are the moves themselves; the terms are already illustrated succinctly above. If I could depict it as a disordered personality, which was easy enough, then describing the interactions with that personility as a game or otherwise is an equally simple matter. The motifs are all there:

• Derailing - ensure that all communications are indirect and disqualificatory
• Reframing - change what something means or derive a biased conclusion from a communication
• Meta-communication - restrict meaningful content to the secondary and ensure
• Disqualification - render communications, behaviours or states non-valid using any one of a number of methods
• Subject switching - ignore a communication in favour of inventing a disjunctive other Attribution - apply a disjunctive action or identity to the target/s
• Escalate - rely on the cold-reading style location of communicational 'triggers' to redirect attention to the emotive and escalate
• Projection - always ascribe negative features of the system to the target/s, and positive features of the target/s to the system
• Denial and Disassociation - Deny that events or communications took place, and deny relationship altogether

Easy see? It could be expressed diagramatically too, and as pure logic if necessary: perhaps when I have time.
You're not well, but you are perhaps my pets.

But somehow, regardless of the loaded dice or system, there is something deeply and fundamentally unreal about it all, like a trip at that point where you start to question the basic foundations of reality. Some would say that way madness lies, but I'd say under the circumstances it's pretty pertinent. There is fake news, for certain, women made men and numbers that don't match, deaths that may not have happened - and didn't I say that the exact complimentary of man-as-woman was rape, and didn't you prove it, pets? - but in many cases the real thing somehow seems no more real than the ersatz, there is something wrong somewhere; the people on the catwalks and in the audience are plastic, their expressions and words are all wrong, they are unreal. We are at that point where the boundary between the real and irreal has been ruptured, the video game is life, the entertainment is real struggle, the gore is the pixellated actual, what I called the virtualisation of life and illustrated with a few catch phrases taken from a product vocabulary. If it is fair to suggest that there is less truth to be found now in 'what things are than in what they are not', then it has become for me a very real observation that there is now more reality in a Hollywood movie than there is in what I am to take for the snippets of reality to which I am quite deliberately exposed. And it spreads throughout the system and, hopefully, it discloses. And I hope this helps the land. This writing is exempt.

Contributions

My personal interests include Left politics (particularly Marxism, Left Marxism, and Anarchism), fantasy and science fiction, art and fantasy art, comic books, role playing games, video games, computers, special effects, popular science, and music. . .

My contributions are too many for me to be bothered to track them down and reproduce here. I've initialised a few pages myself (it's a start!), but the bulk of my contributions are grammatical and typo corrections, link additions, cleanups, redirects, etc. (which, after all, are the bulk of work on Wikipedia anyway). New (article) pages I've initiated and developed are:

• John Blanche
• Ian Miller (illustrator)
• Confounding Factor (games company)
• Peter Andrew Jones

I've also made major contributions to articles on Cecil Frank Powell, Les Edwards, John Sibbick and Carl Critchlow, and initiated the Games Workshop artists category and am now going through the articles in that providing clean-ups and further details. Other targets after that might include articles in the Fantasy artists and Science fiction artists cats, which I'd like to see match the standard of more 'traditional' arts pages.
