I can see where a man could derive a lot of pleasure out of trolling the PO forum.

It is nice to have you aboard.

In case you have not picked up on it yet the genreral concensus is that everybody in AJS's family hates him.

Let's see if he/she takes the bait:

3) Taxes should be raised for the wealthy
4) The war in Iraq was a mistake

The Word "Sorelian" is often used to describe artificial mythologies. Odd.

i searched but didn't find any posts by him, plus that link is broken

In my first series of threads here on PO I declared Bush to be on the the greatest men to ever live (http://forums.roadbikereview.com/showthread.php?postid=184413#poststop) just behind Ghandi and a few others.

I did not get the introduction. :mad:

Please start a new thread declaring me a something or another.

From Post One, you were just mad as a hornet. I've never seen anyone more PO'd, especially among stangers. You just took everyone's head off. Kind of sad, how you've mellowed over the years,

i think if you'll recall, it was during the winter and i wasnt riding much.

you lack the intellect of say a Doug Sloan
nor the bile of Bill or Steam.

in reality you are insignificant. there isn't much to welcome.

sorry but that's our view, you really add very little to anything, you sound like someone young and uninformed other than by Con talk radio.

Interesting. Did a quick google and came up with this:

" George Sorel and his ideas of myth and ideology. This is an interesting area and it really is relevant because of the (mis)use of myth that went on in Nazism in order to form its ideology. Are all ideologies based on myth?

I came across a great article by Ben Halpern, former Richard Koret Professor of Near Eastern and Judaic Studies, Brandeis University (Emeritus) entitled "Myth and Ideology in Modern Usage". Halpern writes of Sorel's theories and looks at how ideology functions with myth:
Ideology is a rational structure with its foundations in myth. Sometimes it builds a machine serving the historic creative forces of an era, and then it communicates the power of revolutionary personal experience of them. In other cases, it upholds a facade behind which work reactionary forces, and then it builds on dead myths which were once historic experiences and whose memory it keeps alive.

I like this definition and I think it is important to contemplate: Do ideologies arise from the foundations (and perhaps the fundamentalism) of myths? In that case, shouldn't cultural mythologists also be concerned with the growth of ideology as a distorted experience of myth?

Obviously, the thing for me to be doing right now is to read Sorel. One more book and theorist. But I think that no serious student of myth should ignore how myth is used to form ideologies and how those ideologies serve to silence the multiple voices found in a myth."

which led to this:

And that is the conscious use of myth that is at the heart of Fascism. And for that you have to read about Georges Sorel.

"Georges Sorel stated his theory of "social myths" most clearly in a letter to Daniel Halevy in 1907."

He was a forerunner of the science of propaganda and that in turn was the father of the science of Marketing. Is it any wonder that the best practitioners of both arts can go from politics to selling soap and back again? Today's post has an article about such a person; Ben Goddard. A man to admire for his business acumen. He could sell the Chamber of Commerce, or he could demogague "Harry and Louise" and marry Louise. Such people are disciples of Sorel. Sorel had an interesting and illuminating thesis:

".....Men who are participating in a great social movement always picture their coming action as a battle in which their cause is certain to triumph. These constructions, knowledge of which is so important for historians, I propose to call myths; the syndicalist "general strike" and Marx's catastrophic revolution are such myths. As remarkable examples of such myths, I have given those which were constructed by primitive Christianity, by the Reformation, by the Revolution and by the followers of Mazzini. I now wish to show that we should not attempt to analyze such groups of images in the way that we analyze a thing into its elements, but that they must be taken as a whole, as historical forces, and that we should be especially careful not to make any comparison between accomplished fact and the picture people had formed for themselves before action."

Very interesting indeed. Sounds like a blue print from the Rove propoganda machine of which our newest member apparently belongs.....Heil Sorelian!!

yeah man. those were the good old days when you could cuss a man on the po forum and not get pm'd. i miss my rant filled incoherent tirades.

Forewarned is forearmed. Solerian is capable of anything! Like Rove! He might even try to craft humanitarianism into another neowahabist subterfuge. Now that's evil.

Oh yeah - what's a "genreral"? Seems that you were just lipping off yesterday about junkie's typo's. Bought any glass houses lately?

So you think a quick google is going to tell you all there is to know about my movement. You are not prepared to know the true myths that are at work. Those that try to figure it all out are laughed at and shunned on this board as a travesty. That is the greatness of irrational logic. Make the truth seears the but of the jokes. Make the rational irrational!

Karl Rove is my puppet he is a follower. All he was smart enough to do was know that men like to be led. They don't want democracy they want authority. George Bush knows this. He has foreseen this and he will smote whoever believes otherwise. Troll? You wish Bocephus. I am your worst right wing nightmare, but mine cometrue.

You don't have to agree with a troll to have appreciation for completely off the wall insano pontificating.

OK, I will concede a certain amount of entertainment value to said goofiness. But after 2 or 3 shots, it gets old. Like bad vodka.
