Big Brother Where Art Thou?
Aug. 4th, 2007 01:23 pmIt's so odd that Americans, who are the biggest free speech advocates, wish to put as many restrictions as possible on free speech and all that.
Most of you know that Live journal has, again, decided to protect us (or, you know, cater to their conservative share-holders and submit themselves to the neo-liberal financial market) from all the "bad" content on the Internet.
That would be Sex, Sex and Sex that isn't vanilla between two consenting adults.
I'd talk about the paradoxical and irony of these cases as seen in the context of modern society and mass consumerism, but what for when it's just so painfully obvious.
In any event, LJ it seems, does not know the difference between promotion, solicitation, pandering and fiction or discussion. And are going Big Brother on us again.
Seeing as my personal LJ has no content that can be seen as questionable (other than my discussion of Slash) I feel secure that I will not be targeted. I am, however, sick of these neo-fascist rules that they are pilling one on top of the other.
There's already someone working on an alternate site (
twocorpses here) and I will be following the progress of that site.
In addition, the genocide in Darfur must be stopped.
וכמו כן, צריך לעצור את רצח העם בדרפור.
