but again this shows that usenet is not just about Atlantean Egyptology,
religious Theology, TV channels or a UFO cover-up because it's
simultaneously combined with a big-bang social clash, so in order to
understand the social dynamics of Usenet, we could classify the
interaction in a similar way to how the philosopher Jung viewed the
human experience. Jung, among others, suggests that there are mythic
forms, or "archetypes" implicit in human behavioural patterns. There's
plenty of archetypal behaviour on Usenet, where the word 'myth' is
usually used to denote stories involving gods, supernatural beings, or
aliens, while the word 'legend' likely refers to chronicles detailing
the actions of real humans, of which most of those on a.r.k. have long
failed humanity 101.
The Usenet community creats folklore around itself. A look into this
murky world of lurking horror may give you a few answers to the smoky
future of millennium culture, but first you'll have to subscribe to
newsgroups with names like; alt.society.neutopia; alt.messianic; or
'alt.memetics'. Usenet is where both the cream of the Planets
intelligentsia and the lowest of the low hang out. A place where a
determined few continually strive to point out to the masses that there
can be no peace on Earth while we still fear each other's differences.
