An Example of Colonization Moving "Things" into Its Databases (Data "Camps")

"When Africa Called... CUBA ANSWERED!"

The above was constructed by a machine calling ITself "FreetheCuban5". It was once again posted at members (and other robots) in the Yahoo group called "theanarchistcommune" (February 14, 2012), and is viewable, for the morbidly-attracted, at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/theanarchistcommune/message/10533.

Introduction to the Pathetic

Fellow organic beings seeking to become more than another "sum of [fragmented] parts", since the self-maintained system referring to ITself as "FreetheCuban5", a robot by any other name, drones about "prisoners" and "Cuba" and Satan-USA, on without heeding any critique, anger, sadness — or any HUMAN call for interaction — here's some antidotes to fend off ITS pandemia-seeking idiotology:

Resources for Self-treatment

• "The Fetish Speaks" – by Karl Marx, released in this comic-strip format by Fredy Perlman;
• "False Consciousness and Ideology" – by Joseph Gabel (1962);
• "The Social Construction of False Consciousness", Chapter 6 in False Consciousness and Ideology in Marxist Theory – by Ron Eyerman (1981);
• "Reification" — by Gajo Petrović;
• "Commodity Fetishism and Reification" — by Mike Rooke (1998).

Assessment of Asset Manager Roles and Tasks

I look at phraseology like "The Popular Education Project to Free the Cuban 5" and cringe.

The "movement" — a reification personified as "constipated", presents itself with the "cries for help" of all whom it has consumed in the past, like the subjugated lifeforms wailing in John Carpenter's film rendition of "The Thing". This Zenoesque "movement" is running a "popularity" scam, like some teen magazine, sports/entertainment "star" who seeks out a "good PR angle" about misery and then perpetuates it by freezing members into a "fan" database. Twitter and Facebook are newer forms of this same objectification, except that the humans-as-data is easily mined by privatization forces deploying the NSA and CIA against all humans; note that "terrorists are defined as including those who avoid the database and those filtered into petri dishes within it, in short, everybody.

Any "movement" is more shuffling from one database into another, more a "merging for purging" flow of data-objects.

The Possibilities are All Around and Within Us

I suggest that we can become:

• better than redundant message-scribers adding personifications (human traits like "talking and emotionally-responding) to non-human reifications called "nation-states";
• better than cyber-bullhorns belligerently and redundantly referring to humans as quantities so that a replica of Alienated Power may be constructed, and by acting in the name of those carrying around Alienated Power on their backs, generalized disempowerment may be expanded into new terrain and spread into/onto others;
• better than diverters of self-power (from subject<-->subject social interaction into object<-->object relations mediated by "owners" of Alienated Power;
• better than passive "supportes" of Causes, that is, reified "movements" led by reproducers of Alienated Power, who rally us away from ourselves into internment camps of the reified Other;
• better than messages written by [inhuman] machines laying bait, and "in wait", for human compassion, upon which to psychopathocratically to feed.

We can "move" ourselves, first by flushing colonizations (behaviors and constructs from our free-associating, omni-central, and mutually-benefiting subjectivity-based social reinventing processes) and colonizers (with their assembly-lined data-flow and psycho-"packaging" processes), and through/as those new forms of relating to each other as vibrant and treasurable subjectivities, by universally-superseding hierarchy, which perpetually demands, manufactures, and forcibly injects/farms/harvests scarcity, dysfunctionality, partiality (versus totality), flat choices (as in "either-or", frozen paradox, and false dichotomy), and mass persona/consciousness as [pseudo-]objects into and onto all social relations, all lifeforms, and across all space-time.
