"Despite the occasional Ranterish enthusiasm of my language I am not trying to construct political dogma"
Yea, right, sure thing guy...
In response to the reading:
This essay, to me, seems very convoluted. All this talk about cyberpunks and not trusting the word revolution, psychic nomadism and counter-net leads me to believe I'm in way over my head. The temporary autonomous zone idea is interesting, but seems futile when one realizes that dependence on technology is already taken for granted to such an degree, many are hopeless dreamers detached from reality. But if reality is dictated by the masses, and more and more people are becoming fluent with the progression of technology, who's to say what our definition of "Space" will be in say, ten years. If we continue to increase our expectations and dependencies on computers, I predict a sad and lonely future full of emotionally and morally detached zombies, but hey, I've been hit in the head allot, so who knows what I'm thinking.
