Finding, together, answers to these questions is an absolute priority for collapsing the Media-fed illusions that prevent repeal of the corrupt "war on drugs", but of course you know that already...

Section II of "The Medium is the Middleman: For a Revolution Against Media"
is now online...
http://www.narconews.com/themedium2.html
It's subtitled "Three Immediate Questions," and we beg your help in finding,
together, the answers for them. They are:
A. How do people develop a language of opposition
against Media when the Media controls all language?
B. Since Media excels at co-opting popular movements, both political and cultural, how can a popular resistance be designed to successfully overturn the co-optation process that has turned other important causes into commodities?
C. In history, revolts have been conducted against
governments, leaders and classes. But how can a
revolt be formulated against a technology such as Media?
A space has been opened up on the Mexico IndyMedia site for the discussion, open to anybody and everybody, as part of this inquiry:

Finding, together, answers to these questions is an absolute priority for collapsing the Media-fed illusions that prevent repeal of the corrupt "war
on drugs", but of course you know that already.
So, dive in, and we'll meet you on the other side of the Screen...
