MY GROUP OF AUTOMATONS
This has been a long time
coming. I was invited to join this group Unlimited
PSP Game
Downloads back when I first set up my MySpace account. I
haven't really been into gaming since the demise of
Atari,
who provided the ultimate in controller design. One button
and a joystick...doesn’t get much better than that. Too may
buttons on all this new shit. Then again, dinosaurs lack
opposable thumbs, which may explain my bias against needing to use
fifty buttons to play a game. However, I'm pretty indiscriminant
in my adding, so I accepted the invite. I recently decided to
check out what was going on with the group.
The group is just an advertisement trying to get dumbasses to purchase
a membership for some stupid download site. What is truly sad is
that some of the moronic members of this group are grateful
for being targeted by this new generation of marketing
schemes. Take Catherine/Cath
for example. She comments, "Just wanted
to say thanx for the invite to join the group." Then there's Sayae
who states, "I'm new too...thanks for the add
though...but what is going on? Just curious :P"
Okay, you have no idea what the purpose of this group is but you are
grateful for the invite anyway. Maybe you should check out the
link to their website before you go thanking them. Do you
dipshits thank everyone who produces a television advertisment
for
telling you which new products to buy? I guess it's easier to be
told what is cool, than to determine what you do or don't like all by
yourself. In fact Erich Fromm wrote a book called Escape
from Freedom, in which he describes how people would rather be told
what they should like and dislike and how they should live their lives
rather than making those choices for themselves. He refers to
this phenomenon as automaton
conformity. I disagree with Fromm on some of the details, but
all in all it's a good book and perhaps some of my fellow group members
should give his work a thorough read...
