  • Whoa what a reaction. I wasn’t going for validating what they did by criticizing the replacement of information about their political ideas and actions with the word “extremism”. But that seems exactly how people understand the term. As if there was a righteous or acceptable “middle” the degree of deviance signified how good or what smth is… The political compass needs to know what things are about, not how “x-treme” they are.

    Or we need to use that term on any bombing of people, like for example “the extremism of [any us president]”. Step 2 would be picturing what benefit that would add to the conversation

    I think this is it more or less.

    It felt like fun freedom to have a communicative realm with no rules, guidelines, morals at all. But in hindsight I guess it was fine for me because I had a moral compass and intellect so mad-max-land allowed me to re-explore my limits and opinions on my own, like from point zero, without preexisting structure (wich is always present if there is any decency).

    For some, apparently, that was not fine. Like they didn’t catch themselves in the freefall of morals and epistemology that comes with the 4chan credo of “everything here fake and foolish…”. Or maybe it’s that some don’t have a corrective social realm outside 4chan, able to get them back to the ground. And those ones overtook. (Maybe cause the other ones are done playing edge walk after a while).

    Tl;dr: had fun, learned some, feel a bit bad now



  • Hehe. Ja also eigentlich darfst du grundsätzlich installieren was du willst. Auch Löcher bohren darfst du beliebig. Ich meine sogar, du bist nichtmal mehr verpflichtet die am Ende zu stopfen. (Was aber sonst auch sehr einfach und billig ist) Das Ding kommt an dieselben Anschlüsse wie eine normale Glühbirne. Neuere Häuser haben da wohl noch Erdung, bei mir gabs das nicht. Da musste ich dann Kurzschließen, aber das is ziemlich egal, weil nur die Gefahr besteht, dass im Falle eines Gerätdefektes das Gehäuse unter Strom stünde. Und das ist ja bekanntlich an der Decke verschraubt aka außer Reichweite.

    It is deeply inspiring what this oevre tells us about the dialectics of meaning developing between a post and it’s audience. Even with no inherent meaning the picture unfurls the deepest human desire to connect and to form communities, especially in disconnecting times and virtual places of refuge from it.

    No I’m not going back to reddit. I will stand with you, withstanding the most selfreferential, the most empty, in hope of a we to fill that void.

    That’s not fair at all.

    Capitalism sucks. The humans have a bountiful potential for they create meaning via emergence of consciousness in an organism wired to desire/avoid. Only this brings so the categories good/bad into existence.

    Don’t blame humans because some historic proceedings did not yet suffice.

    We are our victims, too.
