Crazed fan of pseudo.com attacks founder Josh Harris after screening of We Live in Public

[strugglebuggietv]

How can you just sit there, you megalomaniac, just sit there, while we, had to got to the the library and watch toilet boys, and get off the grid, when, why did you do this...HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAA­A

[LucidDream]

"Ha ha Josh Harris."

[hangover71]

a little strange

[oteptea]

I wouldn't consider this guy a fan.

[puddiipuddii]

wtf... as if Josh Harris is to blame for people's choices, and he has the right to live a more solitude life, doesn't he?

[mythyvonne1]

There's a sucker born every minute, an ass for every seat, and all the world's a stage...the performance of the technology is the only thing new. Let's see just how organic it can get.. whaddya say? Hmmm? There's a fungus among us.

[dakotablue52]

What I got was not just the abandonment, but initially the Internet providers were charging almost $5 per hour - so I would be angry about the idea that Harris wasn't altruistic; he used.

[kimJosette]

It's obviously not fake. Think about it: people became intertwined with Josh's life and felt abandoned when he ended his public life. The man's not only a charismatic genius, but an endearing and likeable person. Throw in 'Internet addiction' and you've got this.

[puddiipuddii]

@kimJosette exactly ;)

[kimJosette]

@puddiipuddii Josh??!!??!!!??!!!???

[rickymitchell945]

did look extremely fake

[jimbob1969]

It's Robert Galinsky ~ Acting coach; worked with Josh Harris on Pseudo.com. Fake.

[spadict]

He was pretty nuts but Josh Harris does kind of deserve an ass kicking like that. Perhaps more fitting though will be the reality that no one cares about Josh anymore, nor will we buy into his unsustainable ideas. Y2K was his time, unless he get's into an entirely new medium he has some wacky vision for, he's got nothing new or interesting to say.

[roverkarlos]

"is this virtual enough for you"

[roodllib]

fake

[SomethingSoOriginal]

HAHA Josh Harris.

[thaddeuslowe]

It was fake. I am that bearded man, & Josh paid me to do that - but the GOD DAMNED cheque bounced. I really shouldn't have been surprised.

[karenlevine]

Not fake. I was there. It was kind of disturbing and sad.

[Lifesucksdie123]

great security staff.

way to go guys.

[evilxt420]

im the guy in the suit who pulls that maniac off Josh Harris it was real

[adolfolicious]

this iss prettyy interstingg to mehh

buh i dont get it

why exactly is this guy mad at josh

how is it his fault

[zacharyadamcohen]

whoadie!!

[docpepperclassic]

Fake. Fake. Fake. Publicity. Fake. Cheap. Fake.

[hoodrivertruth]

Can you say "Jerry Springer"? This is as fake as it get. That Robery Galinsky clown "fighting" Harris is actually one of his partners. Harris even thanks Galinsky in another video. Also, Galinsky runs a business in which he advises corporations how to create viral "reality" videos. They are trying to play us for fools.

[pfflam]

This should be included in the film: it is perfectly emblematic of what is expressed by J Harris - the crazed impotence in the face of complete servitude to media.

Besides the obviously imbalanced mind, it is a perfect performance of the desperate urge to be more than extensions of the technologies that form us, position us, and shape us.

In the past, technology was our extension, soon we will be its extension, if we are not already

[bloodworm99]

lls " haha josh harris"

[otakucode]

Is he arguing that because the guy produced content, he "abused" his audience by making them watch?

I can certainly see this being a viewpoint that a lot of people will take in the future. No, it makes no sense, but anti-intellectualism is rampant. Media is more and more censored, people buying into the irrational belief that content can control individuals and society. This is a stupid idea that will become a self-fulfilling prophecy with people claiming they are unable to just not watch.

[busherbee]

this country is full of some fked up people

[rhymeswithhonda]

i don't understand this guy's comments. he elected voluntarily to spend all that time on the computer being a voyeur, so why exactly is he so pissed at harris?

[MetaMorphy]

He had no LEGITIMATE reason to be. However, he probably got the only meaning in his life from that online community.

[BeauJames59]

I don't know the details, but one idea is that he made this guy his guru, gave away his power, got disappointed, and decided to blame rather than own, his experience......

[BoogieWithStew]

He's a loser, used by Josh, realization of that made him angry.

[xSlapshot49x]

its obviously fake because most of them are laughing

[JHVH1]

or they are laughing cause hes talking so seriously and then mentions some dumb sounding internet name

[Arcanecide]

You guys who just post fake, back it up, or dont post at all.

[BareMaximum]

Josh Harris is not an artist.

Josh Harris is equal parts junk bonds salesman, pornographer, plantation slave owner, exhibitionist, extortionist, torturer and old-fashioned standover man.

Without the good features.

Is he still single? Call me! ;)

[curioustravelers]

Fake?

And I suppose the blood that was on the stage afterwards was fake blood as well. There was nothing fake about it I assure you.

[bambizzoozled]

Fake or not, the statements are true. Fuck Harris.

[hyobin0114]

@curioustravelers you assure me?? this is fake...

[flexicon1996]

@curioustravelers No, it's all fake.

[joehogan212]

Fake, but like all Harris-Galinsky hijinx, very enjoyable.

[MsShowtime89]

oooo the plot thickens!!

[iPhoneBootCamp]

People have commented that underdog bears a striking resemblance to Galinsky but I an assure you Underdog and Galinsky are not the same.

Galinsky is about twenty pounds lighter than Underdog. In fact Galinsky was in the audience and chased underdog outside Lincoln Center but Underdog managed to get away by running into the subway. Underdog has been stalking Galinsky and Josh for years now and this was his chance to attack Josh publicly at the screening.

[teresa11222]

this is galinsky...

[iPhoneBootCamp]

I was there and I can tell you that it was absolutely not fake.

Josh Harris has had run-ins with this underdog character before and he can be very violent. You should have seen the look on his face when Underdog charged the stage.

[stargate121]

Fake? Prove it.

[lvpdesign]

It's fake.

[Joshyrockd123]

FAKE! .... SUPER FAKE

[kcpalooza]

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

[iPhoneBootCamp]

Underdog 1998 : Give himself up to the police and seek mental help before the situation ends tragically for all involved.

[frekijsimpson]

pathetic lower

[Underdoglives]

I was part of the achievement. That's the point. I and thousands of others kept the content flowing and the machine alive. Josh harris just stayed up late at night counting his sheckles while the minions, people like me, created the content allowing him to have extravagant parties and travel. Now poor "cautionary tale" emperor harris gets off the grid and where does he leave us? the once devoted... you people are too young to get it.

[ssh83]

That's just business, buddy. If you want to be successful you have to start your own, i'm sure you're "old" enough to understand that much. If you and your colleagues feel Josh screwed you, there are proper channels to deal with for that legally. Youtube and battery aren't the right places to set things right.

[TrinityFilms2008]

Okay, first of all Underdog or whatever you want to call yourself, take a breather. Relax, count to ten. You can't play a victim too long or it's going to eat you up inside. You should have taken a page out of Josh's book and created your own minion. You should have learned a few tricks up his sleeves and became a master of the cyber world yourself. You don't need Josh to take over the internet world so stop harping on should've could've would've and any other 've.

Team Harris!

[upsss888]

I thought about your argument aimed at 'Underdog'. Reflecting on it, it justifies why even capitalism can harbor such fatal shortcomings, such as creating vicious cycles where men exploit men like toilet paper for the sake of prosperity, breaking them or embittering them to start the process anew. I don't wish to be seen as an impractical dreamer, or a misguided reactionary. I'm just someone who philosophized on how a perfect ideology is nonexistent in a world governed by the human mind.

[iPhoneBootCamp]

Underdog 1998? Have you thought about what I have just said or are you not man enough to admit that you ruined their achievements, ruined their chance to enjoy a work of art that took ten years to create?

[codyann]

how convenient it was planned.

thats a smooth cover up.

-Team underdog!!!-

[Underdoglives]

Eff Josh Harris! I am tired of being set up by him and he had nothing to do with this. He thinks he can pull this off again...? ok to be much more brief. what in the flying hell is up with these facebook and myspace sites?

i don't care about being rejected. i'd rather be told off then ignored. say something sly and condescending. but stop keeping me out of your fake internet world!!!! damnnnnnn youuuuuuuuuu all to helllllllll.

[robertgalinsky]

I heard it was real and josh said it was fake to continue his mythology... Jim Morrison lives

[Underdoglives]

screw you!

[robertgalinsky]

yup

[jimbob1969]

@robertgalinsky Ha. It was you.

[adamBlack50]

many of us just spent 2 seconds on it and went back to work NEXT.who cares. no content , no meaning , no point

[thedudeoforkut]

That's a sure fire way of getting invited to more tech meetups!

[devans1977]

For those who watched the video, we know that Josh likes being Oz, the man behind the curtain. This was staged - another way for Josh to control the emotions, feelings, and reactions of his subjects. Just another project for Josh...and just as he would want it, we all went and posted comments, videos, blogs, and twits about it.
