Re: Fwd: Re: RHIZOME_RAW: RRR Revving: Up:the rapture and anti-environmentalism


Quoting "pall":

i'm with u up 2 about _here_....

well, it could b that b.ing considered a troll isn't good 4 1's self-esteem;)....

>Aren't we firm enough in our beliefs?

hmm...i'm less keen 2 perpetuate/map/transfer_in2_nodal||mm_documentation rigid
beliefs structures themselves, + n.stead try 2 focus on how these beliefs r
constructed/e.[ab]rupt.....

>Or perhaps it has to do with how
>well we know our adversary.

yikes...adversary? perhaps i'm more keen 2 actually build [con]textures that
note ppls motivators/loadings than conceptualise it thru an actual argumentaive
locus-of-control point[s]?

>How much does he or she really know about my

>do I know about his or her opinion/point of view?

...more this [above] + less the below?

>How about a piece that monitors Rhizome raw and if a post goes unanswered

>(that would be the posting losing it's steam).

again, i'm more for sets that capture contextual elements rather than a
monitoring/critical standard.

big pha[rming]t yes;)

sounds zoo.perb. any1 who has actually been following/partic[le]ipating in

n.deedily, y on type not?

yup, + not only that, but i think it a valuable x.tension 2 n.courage
format/stylistic/visualisation changes in terms of teasing out various
directions/motives/backgrounds....

>It would be a good way to bring this topic back into the realm of new

i'm up for it, would even trawl the arc.hives 2 develop an angle on the
thread in qs.

...i haven't been comprehensively absorbing the thread at all, but wanted to
com[a]ment on this type of reaction [both curts and palls] in relation to a/this
email list forum...

..i find it n.tensely n.teresting the dips + move.ments involved in thread
tra[e]jectories, especially where the topic could be construed as
inflammatory..... curts public announcement of c.king 2 withdraw to
b/channelling [mono-topic-response] + then reactions from the multidialogic
perspective from the [/lo-traffic/unseen/lurker] audience involved outlining
that this would like having removal of narrative elements really hi-lites [for
me] the nature/power of these forums...

..it also hi-lites the underlining asumption that emotiff responses are 2 be
avoided, + classed as somehow negative-n.fused rather than competent,
rational[ized] responses...?
