I don't really see the point in just ignoring the people in the room, calling them all stupid, and then getting annoyed when they dismiss you. This doesn't seem to me to be a recipe for success.
No you misunderstand. I just want an argument. A friendly argument if possible. You say there's a general Dissensus point of view, a history, an in-group, and a set of codes you have to abide by to get into the VIP lounge. I don't get most of the Dissensus framework, but I get enough of it to see that it is wrought with inconsistencies (like, how can you be anti-capitalist and enjoy free streaming media, especially electronic music, which is made possible to technological progress driven by capitalism). If I go over the line, don't freak out or try to laugh me off the stage, just ignore it or, hell, try to play along. I was in a psych ward a year ago and I'm trying to recover and the only way to recover is to communicate knotted up ideas/emotions and attempt to communicate. Sometimes that means poking fun at absurdities and inconsistencies. It's in my nature.
I disagree that I ignore everyone. I've responded to every criticism. If anyone's points or ideas are being ignored, it's my own.
Now, can I offer a slight critique? Stop taking this stuff so seriously! I'm not provoking, I'm playing. I'm not angry, I'm laughing. This is a tiny back corner of the web full of brainiacs and freaks and it comes off as a clique of exclusivist hipsters.
And I stand by my statement: club/dance music is club/dance music is club/dance music. Disco, techno, hardcore, dubstep. Trying to read anything deeper into it just evokes eyerolls. To me at least. Disagree? Ignore me, engage in some playful banter, or challenge me to a serious argument. Theory since the 60's has been a critique of consumerism, and everything related to the consumerist lifestyle: the cultic worship of celebrity, the empty surfaces of popular culture, the reduction of the active and thinking subject to a mindless spectator addicted to entertainment. The revolution isn't going to start in a dancehall, or reading Pynchon, Burroughs, or Nabokov (nonces) or watching Kubrick's films (nonce). I just want to point out inconsistencies, and maybe poke some good natured fun at them, but if you lot want a fight, we can fight.
