So much for the silly theories of 'all the people
leaving' because of a poster (me)–so, when will
that idiotic assumption, typically used as bullying
technique evaporate from human brains?!

My dear Karei, no matter how it may stroke your ego to believe otherwise,
visits to the Rhizome web site and people joining from same can have nothing
whatsoever to do with your activity or otherwise on this list. See: one is a
mailing list, the other is a web site. Get it? Cheers, Ivan

I neither have an ego, nor engage in 'beliefs'.
This, baby, is your OWN mode of behavior–and observe it–
nicely–'no matter how much you'd like to stroke your ego
and believe yourself to be an authority on issues regarding the ego–
you're little but an ignorant, egotistical, conceited ape'.

Which is what I was saying.
+ am perfectly aware of the 'perceived' distinction between
rhizome-l and rhizome–which is little but a concensory
hallucination of a classification with no bearance on reality.

Come back when you're not illiterate.

And your derogatory remarks are little but a self-destructive
masochistic impulse going out of control.


Sod off, hammerboy–and take your dumbass commentaries with you.

ivan, that was hillllarious. i loved the tone of your reply … although i am
sure he didn't get it.

in my opinion, he can only see words and simple sentences (i don't think
english is not his primary language) … which would also explain why he
misinterprets so much.

he thinks he can destroy an idea by de-constructing individual words (within a
paragraph or essay). its a very immature form of literary critique. his
reading comprehension skills are at a highschool level.

Nah Karei's multilingual, sharp as a tack, layin' down heavy heat, soldiers

He's on about communal hallucinations too Dave. Besides unlike the everyday
oppressor-bureaucrat, he has no ulterior agenda that I can see.
He ain't in the SAME trough at leastest.

Ivan, I was cogitating on the linkage too–w/o Death the stats coulda gone

politely censored antechamber or fartfest. Yet censorship is all we have
left nowdays, so who gives a damn. Not I.

I don't misinterpret anything luv. None of you have anactual

I think nothing of the sort. In fact, I don't think.
Your myopic misinterpretations of what Ido are drivel.
And your 'ideas' are little but brain-born chimeras.

Wishful derogatory projection.
It's neither critique, nor literary, nor even anywhere within the area.
You've gota LONG way to go before you can hear what I'm doing, luv.

Dearest–you're talking about yourself.
'reading comprehension'–that term only has meaning to someone whose
head has been fucked over by a destructive educational system.

Yeah except for I'm not parroting the concept as is

Not everyone who talks about Jesus knows about Jesus.

And there are too many who YAMMER ON about things
that they don't understand. Particularly relevant
to the notion of the disconnection of proper
tradition and removal of old-style leaders–and now that
the shoes are 'empty' every Joe Schmoe is talking about 'it'

However. The real ones were removed for a reason.
Yer supposed to be doing something else.
There aren't going to be any 'new' old-style

Censorship is largely irrelevant as it's a bit like forbidding
the color RED among blind people.

The reality of things is that humans are 'degenerate' enough that
they're not only illiterate, but can't even speak (language) properly.
That's in inverse proportion to their self-importance.

So ya know. Cripple them, and then sell them free speech.
And democracy. And a cherished illusion of freedom.

Too bad that you're talking about yourself–half-assedly taking the

The only 'bloke games' player here is you baby.

Funny how you attempt to IMPOSE YOUR FRAUDULENT 'AUTHORITY'
in sneakish ways–who? me? No.. I'm not an authority! I just
want everyone to do what I say!

All your 'piddling' 'revolutions' about authority is because
you don't want someone to have the ability to say that you cant
act like an imbecilic 2 yr old and then pass that on as mature and
enlightened art.

And this is the standard mechanism of pseudo-anarchistic
'rebellion'–keep them dense and dumb and ruled by their
mechanical instinctual impulses. Anyone who dares
to point out your pitiful stare with certainty must be 'daddy'
and we all know 'daddys are bad'.

Mark, I sense that he is not out to abuse people for his jollies. And if you
stand back, you can see that he uses essentially the same non-flattering terms
for everyone; and as such, that he is not making personal attacks. Just
extremely blunt criticism within a pretty specific domain of language,
consciousness, awareness, and social structure. I would not be in favor of
censoring him. However, perhaps there should be a starter pack for every
Rhizomer that helps take the sting away.

Anyway, that is my take on it, but I am just a farmer monkey who can barely
read or write, so what do I know? :)

Precis. You wouldn't be suggesting the 'taking of stings away'

, David Goldschmidt

i don't know joseph … the guy is very violent with his words. you and max
may have the want to suffer his attacks but some may stop contributing to
the list. there's your censorship. people not speaking up and engaging in
conversation out of fear. afraid of being verbally assaulted by an asswipe
with a mesiah complex.

i'm not in favor of Rhizome censoring him either (i just don't read his
posts anymore) but i do believe his abusive and violent words keep some from
sharing their thoughts and ideas … and that is censorship.

Mark, I sense that he is not out to abuse people for his jollies. And if
you
stand back, you can see that he uses essentially the same non-flattering
terms
for everyone; and as such, that he is not making personal attacks. Just
extremely blunt criticism within a pretty specific domain of language,
consciousness, awareness, and social structure. I would not be in favor of
censoring him. However, perhaps there should be a starter pack for every
Rhizomer that helps take the sting away.

Anyway, that is my take on it, but I am just a farmer monkey who can barely
read or write, so what do I know? :)

Hello David,

I would just like to say that, I do have issue with this character but I
want to stay on Raw and I do not wish it to change. And if it gets a bit not
to my liking - may be I should just let it be what it is and not what I
think it should be. So if Karei is going to carry on here, may be a kind of
psychological observance would be more appropriate for me - study this
interaction. Strange & interesting times that we are all living in - and it
is possibly more important that Rhizome gets my support and not an angry
opinion. If one compares the energy and all the other stuff such as a
website/lists & commissions for artists/non artists - artbase, dedicated
crew - to the issue of what has been happening on the list here; then one
has to wake up and see the larger picture. I take back what I said, will
carry with my stuff and let what is - alone. nuffsaid…

I would perhaps agree with you if there was an organized effort by several
people to shut up others using abusive language, but self-censorship in the
face of a whithering criticism by one person seems a little weak-willed. Like
you said, you can stop reading him and go on.

You are quite correct, as a figure of speech it was incorrect to use "let
you". I should have stated clearly that I would not attempt to prevent you,
which I could try, though the result of that attempt cannot be determined at
this time.

A taunt? "Try and catch me first"? Do you expect me to puff up my chest and
say "Uga Uga"? I am well aware of my protective impulses and the problematic
management of them. Where to draw the line in defense of others? Do I stand
aside as an unaware old lady falls victim to an unaware busdriver?

No old boy, in that original statement about "take the sting away" did you
notice the smiley face :) ? How else do I convey amusement at a thought in
email? Do you find it reprehensible that I find amusement in people being
frightened by harsh words and being given a starter kit from a "Welcome to the
Neighborhood Committee" like those two gay guys in American Beauty? What if I
mix sadness in as well? Can you laugh at situations that make you sad?

And I am pompous also, or so I have been told. Are you perfect? If not, what
are your imperfections?

As for victimization, I think that people who fall victim to pseudo-
patriarchality have been faked into victimizing themselves.

"whithering criticism"???? i don't think so. more like self-righteous,
ego-centric bullshit.

tell me this joseph (and max) … how is it possible to discuss larger, more
complex ideas with someone that is just deconstructing your word choice. i
mean, written communication is far from perfect. words have multiple
meanings, nuances … how is it possible to discuss an issue with someone
that is reacting/responding out of context.

humans are emotional creatures … and art/writing is an expression of the
way one sees the world, ones reaction to the world, et cetera. there are
VERY FEW WRITERS with the skill to perfectly/precisely communicate their
thoughts, ideas, emotions in written form.

and who is he going to "awaken" if people are too afraid to speak up and
engage in conversation. the "awakening" process requires an open mind,
trust and interaction (between a teacher and a student). what student would
listen to rants of this sadist.

I am not violent. I am not sugar coated, that's all.

They are not suffering anything, as I do not damage anyone.
If anyone does 'suffer' it is for other reasons, not insignificantly
the human habit of wallowing in pain–AND blaming someone else for it,
of which you're 'guilty' in spades.

A few years ago I observed a gang of kids who went and stuck their hands
in a large grove of very tall nettles, and having been stung, ran away
screaming and then came back with sticks and beat up the nettle plants.

If you want to see real violence, take Mr. Joseph here who attempts
to feed off of perceived people's 'problems' by pretending to be a
bandage and solicits every person as a 2 bit whore.

Then go and turn the mirror on yourself with your cries for
forceful and violent appropriation of other people's visual work.

And finally take a good look at the 'art world' that you try to
subscribe yourself to–a bunch of petulent immature dictatorial
babies, who cannot handle themselves and moreso refuse the
responsibility of doing so, transferring and projecting their
own idiocy on others and proceeding with their 'justified murder'
art revolution–when in fact they have the talent, understanding,
capability and intelligence of a less than developed ape, meanwhile
attempting to appropriate virtues, glory, authority and status of a
real artist–something they are not even remotely close to–and
in the proces muscling their way in, without any responsibility to
anyone or anything, bloating their egos out of control and crushing
all life around them until finally exploding into 'stars'–
the kind of black holes that hang over all of humanity's heads
and leech energy like the black holes that they are.

You want me to write Shakespearean sonnets about these piles of shit?

This is not CENSORSHIP. This is passive-aggressive bitches
attempting censorship by refusing to wriggle their hips.
I_ nor anyone else is responsible for their choosing to be cowardly
dogs. This is the epitome of lazy-ass suckers who refuse to work
on themselves, abrogate responsibility for their own actions,
and if they pee in their diapers it's somebody ELSE's fault.
Guess what? It isn't.

> people not speaking up and engaging in conversation out of fear.

Their fear is their own problem dearest. I do not cause that fear.
They choose to indulge in it.


> afraid of being verbally assaulted

The only one verbally assaulting here is you, dah-ling.
What I write is not an assault. It's the unpleasant truth
about yourselves that you don't want to acknowledge.

The only asswipe here is you, luv.

As above. If you paid two cents worth of attention you'd have noticed
that I have no messiah inclinations or complexes AT ALL. Avoid project
ing your own imbecility on my luv.

Anymore? You never read them to begin with. All you're doing is an
idiotic MESSIAH COMPLEX I want to save the poor afraid lambs pose.


> but i do believe his abusive and violent words

My words dearest are neither abusive, nor violent.
You're attempting to project your own imbecility
On what I do. What I do is exactly what I do.
Not what you WISH to misrepresent it as.
Keep your myopic masturbatory childish 'observations'
to yourself.

> keep some from sharing their thoughts and ideas

Twittish idiocy. Sharing their thoughts and ideas? You mean engorging
their pathetic egos?

No, it isn't.

A+B conversations? What is it that you wrote, you think?
And A + B knee-jerk. And an A + B pose of abrogation of self
-responsibility (don't involve me). Did anyone force you

Try and catch me first. Though I'm not sure why you involve your mother
in this–if sticking a dead fetus would somehow-miracuolously–wake her
up, and if it was up to me to do it, I'd do it. You don't own your
mother, and she's not a helpless defenseless twit. Though your mother is
a female, and I doubt dead fetuses would startle her much, if she's
in touch with her being FEMALE.

Guilt? Wasn't implying anything of the sort. However, that is not a way
to raise children. You'll cause them to grow up helpless victims, and
never to wake up. Don't take that as an advocation to throw children to
piranhas. But you're advocating dearest, maintaining humans on thwe
level of sedated two year olds. That ain't gonna help them at all, cuz
the more asleep they are, the more Nature will smack them–and a harder
life they'll have–and finally they'll die weaklings.

With strawberry jam. You suffer from pseudo-patriarchality that

Maybe you should go take a look at real shamanism, cuz
then you'll glean that females are the stronger of the teo sexes,

Not one of the active posters to this list or thingist is even partially
awake. Not one. And in general, you're more asleep than a bunch of
illiterate mexicans.

Not one of you is to any degree in control of his capacities,
or possesses any degree of awareness, familiarity or control
over your (belief) psycho-sexual mechanisms. Not one.

And reading isn't going to help you out of there.

You inaccurate in your expression for your statement is inclusive of yourself,
though the content of your expression implies exclusion of yourself due to its
authoritative stance. And you are incorrect in stating that all are not awake.

Your statement is taken as racist in that you chose a particular racial group
to illustrate a non-attractive characterization with no justification for
choosing that particular racial group other than your own personal expression.
You could have chosen, with equal information transfer, but without the racial
profiling, a statement like "you're more asleep than a bunch of illiterate
farmers"

Of course, then you might offend farmers.

In my karate dojo, the black belts will pummel their knuckles against brick
walls. I also have started doing this. The purpose is not to break the wall
but to strengthen the knuckles.

Death is like a character from an Ann Rynd novel - no character changes - each
strictly performs to their philosophical position in the story. He is
interesting in this way. Additionally, he every once in a while will let
tidbits of knowledge he as acquired come out and then I use these to start
interesting journeys around the Internet.

Well, I don't think he is going to "awaken" anyone. It takes a great deal more
than some harsh emails to open someone's eyes. Rhizome Raw is a Dionysian
Place - sometimes very dark. I would miss that if it were changed. And it is
not for teacher/student relationships that one should come here - it is all
self journeys.

I agree with Joseph. I like Karei. He fits well into my program.

At least he ain't afraid to body up; I hate those polite super-clean waspy
games at the clubby-wubby. Everybody calling every little thing. Let the
players decide the outcome.

Can we talk about that one article Wally posted? Or not, either way.

My last great idea before I go to bed: maybe us artists have to support the
war on Iraq, kick that dude's butt, then heal the incredible human
aftermath. Like in, flip the pancake then catch it.

That would fit with Negri and Hardt correct? Plus then I can shut up and
write my book, no need for hasty masturbatory ejaculations or filibusters,
vain postures of purity, mealy-mouthed pacifism, or lousy tipping.

I just don't want to be knee-jerk about it. What was the url for that
article again Wallace?

Also eyescratch, you gwinna answer my question?

Either way,

Who cares about Karei now that we're all good to go on Iraq? That's the
only really thorny question for me nowaday. What's the line from Starship
Troopers, "Fleet's going to glass the planet. Then MI mops up." Well art
would be the MI.

What did you think of the Germany article Karei? The one Wallace Politburo
posted?

Anyone else? I'm supposed to work on my rigidity.

Karei, I heard Friday that Gestalt Psychology calls certain stuff
"mindfuck." How does that relate to NN? Just curious.

I didn't say you were a character IN an Ayn Rand novel…I said you were LIKE a
character in an Ayn Rand novel. She attempted to demonstrate her "cheap"
philosophy via characters that never showed any character development…ie
they acted consistently within their beliefs (or her beliefs of them) without
evolution throughout the entire novel.

So far, I haven't seen you deviate from your beliefs and you act consistent
within that belief system.

Did you see the movie White Oleander - Michelle Pfieffer plays an artist who
murders her lover and dominates her daughter. She talks about the cattle-like
quality of most of humanity, their un-evolved state. At one point her daughter
says to her… "Mom - people like them don't hurt us, we hurt them"

You do not understand my mentality about this. You are not yet capable of
understanding. I will try to explain - teaching children to not pee in their
pants, watching them do so anyway, then feeling amusement at the process of
teaching (for they will eventually learn - all travel the spokes of a wheel,
some longer than others, towards center - as a teacher you try to make the
direction inward). It is better for the self than a whip or rod.

You're an asleep sheep imbecile attempting to dress himself

You're talking about yourself. The only one with 'impatient tactics

*Finish my awakening*. Idiotic twit. No there are no 'clues'

avoid attempting to dress yourself in King's clothes,
child.

You're absolutely a STUNNING example of an idiotic con-man.

BAHAHA. Idiocy. My dearest. You are not qualified in
ANY MANNER and to ANY DEGREE to judge who is to be awakened.
As I wrote above: you're a little asleep sheep trying
to play a big man's game. And you don't even have
the energetic construct of someone who can judge
such issues. Your behaviour is laughable.

Your knee-jerk reactions to dicussions of alternative word selections indicates
a emotional response to questions upon your perfection. Stomping up and down,
and throwing sticks is a very ape-like behavior.

A two year old ape could not differentiate illiterate for the literate, nor
mexicans from farmers. So a two-year-old ape could not make a judgement on
"like" in this scenereo - you are incorrect.

It's neither mundane,nor sexual.
The strength of females REGARDLESS OF THEIR GENDEr (sexual orientation)
is a fact. You're an idiotic ape monkey, truly.
There is no preoccupation pof any sort–I simply pointed out
your ignorance–and were you conscious in minimal form,
you'd know that females are not only STRONGEr but .. ah :)
Maybe when you grow up, you could withstand a conversation
about that.

Idiotic con-man.

You're not qualified to teach anyone.

No these words are not politically insensitive. And the only thing
you're 'teaching' is an attempt to debasea Being to agree with your
myopic cheap and idiotic misunderstanding of reality.

There WAS and IS nothing POLITICAL or RACISt about those remarks.
If anyone projects their own prejudices on mthe words
it is their own ILLITERACY. Words don't function on
'common sense conventions'.

Nevermind that these words would not be politically so defined in
MEXICO. or in CHINA. Or In INDIA.

You're peddling a mediocre white-trash middle class male
mis-education as 'consciousness'.

I understand perfectly dearest. Your idiotic mindfuck

This was not anoffer of options.

There have been no knee-jerk reactions luv–nor are you

There is no such thing as 'alternative word selections'.
This is only a concept which exists inside your brain.

You're simply attempting to dictate my words.

It does nothing of the sort. There is no 'emotional response'.
You're projecting self-debasing brain-cut outs about yourself.

You're not 'questioning'. You are doing the below:

Sorry luv. No stomping. No stick throwing.
No ape-like behavior.Not here. But yes,
you're describing yourself perfectly.

Not only that but you're monkeying language
you don't understand :)

It does nothing of the sort, except for in your delusionally diseased

Drivel, on both accounts. Art is not about emotionz.
+ have written about this and very clearly.
+ shall again:

the imbecillic instinctual + brain-centered 'feelings' that
most humans experience are absolute nonsense + vampiric imbecility

ARt operates on level of emotions–which belong to
beings evolved to the extent necessary to comprehend art–
at that point there is NO misunderstanding.

Nobody cares about your daily 'pseudo-emotional' kitsch drivel,
and it is NOT art.

Yes. Humor is no excuse for putting oneself to sleep.

You make the grand mistake of Her david Goldschmidt + many others
to make the assumption that because I do notplay along + acknowledge
your delluded 'thoughts' 'nuances' 'humors' etc. I am not picking them
up. They are NOT THERE, though it's fairly observable how one emptily
spins around in those particular circles.

This kind of humor is a coping mechanism to soften reality.
Pad oneself. Wrap people with sleepy-blankets with a smile
while finding their inability to cope 'amusing'. I choose to
find it reprehensible (and not with my brain).

That doesn't excuse the 'victimizers'–as they are the double-victims
+ not everyone is born 'discerning'. In fact most aren't. I already
wrote to Max–your mentality about this amounts to teaching children
that peeing in their pants is OK and then laughing at them because
they don't know it's not okay.

You're heavily misunderstanding the non-identification with victim
status impulse with abrogation of responsibility for damaging others.

There is no such one. And it's not about SEX (you mean gender by the
way) luv. Females are not their GENDER.

I have done nothing of the sort. You're simply projecting wishful

you + you only and have nada to do with the content of my words.
