Morgan you're so mixed up I can't but tell you so! Jeeez, Dude, get
yourself together man, I know this list is closing down but that's no
reason to get suicidal... these 'comparable' tribes are way loose -- we do
know the net facilitates any Old kind of trouble, enlarges it -- i would
have never come across these kind of fascist fantasies if it wasn't for the
net to serve them, really, this kind of stuff is (still) hard to find in
Europe... but we have lots of other kinds of trash in our 'psychological
landscape'.

the 'space in between' is 'addressed' like any real space: WAR. It is
human-to-human battle, either it or yourself to disappear: not yet another
conversational zone, not another intellectual construct. Trouble, a mess,
deep shit. Fight it like anything real sick. Don't think twice, don't
theorize, don't hesitate... and don't do art!

This is no choice you're offering. Don't mix up agendas like all the other
Artistes around the block. Change your own world, not it's. (all there's to
it?)

you've made your point. It is one of the many realities we can't speak to
from 'here'. Way to go. I hope you feel better. Indeed, IT is disgusting,
pure hate, (self) destructive -- very Real indeed, beyond our way of
rethinking 'politics', 'reason', 'space', 'image', 'pathologies'. Our
problem vis-a-vis these 'realities' (and we've witnessed our own impotence
expressed in this list only too often to my taste) is that they are indeed
taken for Real by their followers, while we lost any sense of reality at
all.
We are not addressing the space in between because we no longer have a
reality to address it from.
There is no here in here anymore.
