THE MEDIA EDITION: ISSUE 86, VOLUME 113
HAMMERTIME
There is something rather pleasurable about anarchy. Flash Mobbing (a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place) has been around for a while as cell phones and social networking exploded onto the scene, disturbing the hamster-on-the-hamster wheel lives of the masses. The expressions on the faces of the worker-bees and consumer-bees are priceless as just for a moment, they realize how mundane their lives are. For a moment they are outside the matrix.
There is great value in Flash Mobbing, and I think it is a tool that can be retrofitted for political protest to shock the zombified masses into getting off their asses and fighting.
