A search of the term "neofascist" is revealing--note how Doug's sources define the term. Of course we have been down this road before with the term neo-nazi--Doug has accused participants here of being neo-nazis. Now I don't know how familiar Tim or Toby or any of the other new folks rushing to Doug's defense are with Pynchon novels since they don't discuss Pynchon much, but anyone who has VL and GR or CL49 or M&D or V. or read any one of Pynchon's novels can easily see that Doug's calling list members neofascists is ugly, nasty, offensive, stupid, absurd, and dangerous. What Doug is saying is that "all of the" "neo-fascists" are reading anti-fascist fiction. Now why would neofascist do that? Why would superpatriots subscribe to and post to a list where the novels being (or the novels that should be) discussed attack superpatriotism (another term for neofascism)? WHat is Doug actually saying about us? Get a grip, Doug. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
