Editing Consumerium:Non-neutral point of view

'''This article is representing the [[TPOV]] almost entirely after numerous edits to [[dispute]] it's [[Content Wiki|content]]

''This article is disputed as being absolute nonsense due to its stupid title.''

'''For serious suggestion of POVs look into [[POVs]].'''

== power-driven ==

The so-called "[[neutral point of view]]" is a state where all disputed statements have [[attribution]].  However, this is not "neutral" with respect to what is disputed, by who, or how often.

===topdog view ===

This neutrality is defined by some set of arbitrators or controllers, in [[large public wiki]]s this is typically a [[sysop power structure]] that uses the claim that something is "not neutral" to bolster their own power, and reinforce [[systemic bias]].  
These '''topdog''' people would say that '''non-neutral points of view''' include: 

*[http://www.wikinfo.org/wiki.php?title=Sympathetic_point_of_view Sympathetic point of view], which is said to be implemented in [[Wikinfo]], a [[fork]] of [[Wikipedia]], which in practice could include [[advertising]] or [[funded troll]]s promoting a concept - who can demand parallel articles for the most contentious subjects be created to express:
*[[Critical point of view]] - including disapproval of the concept itself, and claims that it does not exist;  

=== underdog view===

This "sympathetic versus critical" problem is not entirely solved by [[sysopism]] (claiming "neutrality" and claiming that whoever has [[IP block]] power, knows what it is).  There is an '''underdog''' view:  [[Trolls]] argue that '''non-neutral point of view''' itself is merely an invented mechanism used by others to define them as "wrong" - a [[God's Eye View]].  

Those who dispute the ability of anyone to tell "sympathetic" from "critical" or "opinion" from "research", would prefer that this article be from a very critical POV, and consider its title to be from a:
*[[Sysop Vandal point of view]] - defined by [[trollist]]s as "[[technological escalation|we have more advanced weapons than thou]] point of view";  This will be claimed by [[trollist]]s to prevail in [[Publish Wiki]] as long as there is such a thing as "[[Opinion Wiki]]" which requires vandalism ([[sysop vandalism|someone deciding things are opinions and moving them there]]) and as long as there is more power given to old trolls than to the:
*[[New Troll point of view]] - which claims there is no [[Consumerium:Neutral point of view|Neutral point of view]]; [[NTPOV]] will likely be attempted to guide us in governing [[Research Wiki]] in order to avoid getting anyone's leg bitten off (ie. being [[troll-friendly]])

''The troll rhetoric seems to arise naturally in reaction to [[sysopism]] and will probably flare up intensely any time someone makes an assumption of power.  The power-driven model has led only to years of conflict at [[Wikipedia]] and has only moved to other levels by banning [[dissident]]s like the [[Wikipedia Red Faction]].''

== faction-driven ==

A less painful way to express the above debate, and make wiki structure and titling less dependent on "which faction is in charge right now", is that '''Consumerium point of view''' is [[factionally defined]], and that each faction has its own POV that it can agree on ''with others of that faction.''  Each [[Research Wiki]] page is effectively a battleground for [[duelling POV]], and this conflict helps to bring out the truth - in an [[adversarial process]] such as is applied in court.  Some things, like the [[process]] itself, or the existence of [[Wikimedia corruption]] may not be disputed, while others, like the role of "[[Opinion Wiki|opinion in research]]", might be hotly disputed, yielding:

* [[Consensual point of view]] - articles where [[faction]] differences are muted
* [[Multiple point of view]] - articles where [[faction]] differences are overt

Articles might then be divided among a [[Consumerium:Greens|Green]] or [[Consumerium:Pinks|Pink]] or [[Consumerium:Red|Red]] point of view, depending on the factions, but are not reduced to "sympathetic/critical" or "consensual/multiple" as these are not axes that are derived from real values.

''This factional model is [[politics as usual]] as in [[representative democracy]].  It has its problems, but, it's the only thing we agree to run the world on.''

== consumer-culture-driven ==

[[Governance by Kit-Kat McFlurry]] is yet another management paradigm when whoever has [[controll]] of the [[fast food]] syrup supply and freezer gets to do awful things to whoever they think are [[trolls]] using these mechanisms.

:Actually McFlurries are not made of syrup, they consist of [[soft ice cream]] and [[crushed candy]], [[[spun threat|spun]] with a fairly heavy, specially crafted [[w:plastic|plastic]] [[spoon]] --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 21:48, 2 Jul 2004 (EEST)
