One must do the opposite of taking the medium seriously. I've spoken of the need to boycott. One does that out of necessity. Ad block is one of the easiest ways to reverse ban corporate scum. It obviously works because quite a number of websites consistently tell us to turn it off or we will see no content. Fvck their profits.
Never turn it off. Websites demanding such activity perhaps need to die first as internet players. Violence is a no-no, so all we can do is boycott early and often.
A lot of people seem incapable of taking the final step away from complicity with the oppressive social structure now encapsulated by internet. They may become disillusioned with so and so yet tend to merely relocate to such and such. Internet addiction is one explanation but more likely is the extent in which one had been socialized. If we were taught to have self-respect for ourselves and others which is most of us, that was both a blessing and a double bind. It's good to be good yet bad to assume the squares decrease in numbers via progress; that there is always better medium around the corner if we just keep looking. There is something called negative social movement. We are basically headed in the wrong direction.
"They" don't think we have the nerve or aren't smart enough to forge new paths. Oh, that's France and would never happen here?
That people are blocked and banned to the extent happening implies we do have power. We are mimicked and harassed. We are separated and ostracised. In my own way I've been saying bring it on. Let the losers in control have it all in regards to the major platforms. One old saying is give them enough rope to hang themselves. We do that by washing our hands and never looking back.
I'm not trying to scapegoat CNN but they are a very easy example to use. The caveat is that the boycott strategy gets circumscribed into the status quo. CNN is spun as left wing Marxism despite how crazy that sounds. MSNBC seemed to be okay but they took a hard right turn. Even I am circumscribing cable news into the fake debate. They are all miserable and part and parcel of the bread and circuses system. The point is they all need to die for ratings, not literally as people. If violence worked, the military-industrial complex wouldn't be promoting it.
The chickens will come home to roost. We don't need to be violent at all. It will happen eventually and we'll have had nothing to do with it. Hence Radiohead said, "You [state power] do it to yourself."
It's the start of a new day. The best ones are when I devote morning internet time to music and true freedom rather than focusing on what the system directs.
SOAD was a great band with meaningful lyrics.
Everything is obscene means what it says.
I've been feasting a lot lately on Pink Floyd at Pompeii.
We are all psychic or the ability is dormant. It doesn't mean we can read minds or predict the future. It signifies in general we are not using our brains to full capacity. We have been brainwashed to believe there are debates.
Let the medium and society continue to rot.
It cannot be fixed within the way it is structured. It will never get better as is. Social reality demands authentic political revolution or utter spiritual death. The system has figuratively frozen us in time as victims similar to what happened in Pompeii but not as a result of natural disaster.
It's been recently reported that Tim Donaghy did indeed rig games in which he officiated. One of the biggest conspiracy theories has been that the NBA is rigged akin to pro wrestling. No one was debating that the refs sucked. The fake argument was on whether it was accidental or deliberate. Well, now we know?
No one flies around the sun.
