Jim We...Rocky; where are you coming from with that? Jim Wermes said most of what i wouldve said in our defense, but i had to disagree with one point he made; i <i>don't</i> understand how you can see us as "elitist assholes". as far as i can tell, no one has directed any asshole-ish comments at you, or restricted your access to some part of all this. just like anyone else, you are able to read and comment to your hearts content. surely you dont think any blog that wont automatically make you an Admin is elitist.<br /><br />in the first part of this blog post, i tried to address that very sentiment in an ironic whimsical way, which is out of character for me -whimsy, that is...<br /><br />and to that point; i do personally consider myself an elitist in some ways -i wish more people would consider themselves "elite"- but the last thing you'll find on this blog is up-turned noses or snobbish condescension. i hope you take these comments as evidence to that point.tourehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16390479522471190544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271416381264855047.post-28882430184231437932010-03-30T07:29:43.061-07:002010-03-30T07:29:43.061-07:00Hi Rocky, I am sorry you feel that way.
Remember...Hi Rocky, I am sorry you feel that way. <br /><br />Remember the Sync Whole here is just one website within all of the internet. It is one voice among many. We do not pretend to be a seat of democracy or representative of the whole of society. We are just one opinion among many. I feel quite sure all members of the Sync Whole would never want anyone not to get involved in Sync, because like you said, we see it as universal. Anyone can read this site, take from it what they can and do sync in whatever way they want. That does not mean everyone should have the right to become one with the voice of our site here. You can start your own site up and say whatever you want and I am not going to require that I get to write and be a part of your site. I don't see how this elitist. It seems pretty democratic to me. I do know there is a whole world of sync out there that I myself choose not to engage in, not that it is not valid. I just have different tastes. I mean I want a Sync Whole that my daughters could visit or even the youth I work with in schools could visit, so therefore I do not want to spread ideas that are hateful, judgemental, too grotesque and negative. This is a choice we should all have in life, right?<br /><br />I don't think I am being elitist or an asshole for feeling this way, do you? I like to see it as the opposite that I am being overly sensitive to ALL people, rather than concerned about what the Sync internet subculture thinks. Remember Sync on the Net is just that at this point, an isolated subculture. My ideal is to cautiously and responsibly spread the idea of sync as we do here to as many people as possible. We want a Sync revolution don't we? We want a world of peace and divine revelation, don't we? I know I do.<br /><br />The group of fellows that write here are some of the kindest, nicest and least elitist guys I have met. I would not share such an intimate space with them if they where not. As an Anarchist I have struggled against authority and elitism for almost the last 20 years. The work of the Sync Whole to me is the truest embodiment of the Anarchist ideal I have ever been a part of. <br /><br />I hope you can see that one day. I do understand how you can see us as "elitist" and as "assholes." So no hard feelings, I just wanted to share with you my two cents.<br /><br />Take care and much love<br /><br />JimCosmic Ti69erhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08008426248212397429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271416381264855047.post-40349834392296010842010-03-29T19:38:37.503-07:002010-03-29T19:38:37.503-07:00why are so many of you guys such assholes on some ...why are so many of you guys such assholes on some elitist shit? you make it seem that sync is universal, yet you guys pick and choose whom to share it with, if you dont want certain people to get into it, i suggest dont do it on the internets. i am not saying all of you are assholes, but elitists for sure.Rocky_Fontanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10398857659813287038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271416381264855047.post-52491300879929925632010-03-28T09:09:10.925-07:002010-03-28T09:09:10.925-07:00This is the lesson, grasshopper. to know that you ...This is the lesson, grasshopper. to know that you are bigger than time.
