[Nettime-bold] Re: <nettime> Fakes...

["N Jett" <njett@hotmail.com>]

"your just a copy of an imitation..."

or

"nothing is real but the medication..."

Is someone starting a cult...? The dichotomy of 99.9999+% of "fake" humanity 
vs. us, the noble "true" humans who are actually "real"... it's perfect for 
that sort of thing... a very dangerous way to think. What to do about them 
huh? How do you propose to eliminate the threat the "fakes" post to 
"progress"?

"One must resist any ideas that have
no point, endlessly question, and never accept
imperfection or compromise in any answer."


Perhaps this essay is meant as irony...
