The Genderberg Memory Hole

22. Apr, 2008 0 Comments

In refreshing my memory for some recent posts, I realized that the text leaked from the genderberg forums seems to not really be online much of anywhere. In fact, only one place still had it. Not even the blog of "Deep Feminist" had the actual text available.

Frankly, that isn’t something I am really comfortable with. I think the text (and the incident it spawned) is a little too newsworthy to be left to the tender mercies of a single page and the Google cache. So here it is.

"I believe Ren Ev is porn marketing. There are many ways to market. What she’s doing is called astro turfing. I wrote about it in that other thread. This type of marketing gets those people who don’t like ads, but don’t get that ads can take many forms, and one of the most successful is to make the AD seem like a program, or an article, or a blog. She’s a front, something like BitchPhD is. That’s another type of advertising. Ren Ev’s being paid to popularize porn. No marketing initiative would ignore that type of marketing and the big porn market is now being managed by Time Warner and it’s peers with all their marketing engine. This astro turfing is far the most effective nowadays, when people are sick of ads, marketers can still use methods like this to slide by. All those people who are drawn to REs blog, daily grow more and more accustomed to seeing her as just another performer. She’s popularizing it. Taking the sting ot of it. Apparently she wrote about ass to mouth recently. No problem. Just use listerine. And they listen to her. She’s marketing. She’s archived by google. She comes up on searches for words and subject matter used in everyday searches. And that’s the point of her blog." – from the genderberg forums

Now it’s all safe for the future.

    sigh, if it’s true, I still haven’t got my check!

    You’re just hiding it. I am sure I saw you on “Lifestyles of the rich and evil”.
