Funny thing is, they think they are using values and principles. You can rationalize any action you take. It may look like bullshit from on objective perspective, and the people who were wrong last time will come back with parts of that objectivity to back up their subjectivity.


I'm not accepting excuses for people's assbaggery, these days.

I say there's been 120, that's right, 120, minimum journalist arrested in the UK lately.

Wait.  What?

I've just been catching up with a stack of Private Eye, Shit is FUCKED.

So, what, are they going to start smashing printing presses next?  Or maybe bring back drawing & quartering for those who talk treason?

Just what the fuck is going on over there?

Still getting through the meat, but the long and short of it looks like the NSA has been monitoring everything on the internet, everywhere, all the fucking time. Saying much about how much is a little bit taboo. Which will inevitably force the embarrassment to come from abroad, where you can control it less and it will inevitably harm you more.

The guardian considers one arrest an attack on journalism, yet disregards the continuous arrests of a wide range of journalists at an increasing rate for various, very iffy, reasons.


The UK truly does get what it deserves. Mainly because it keeps fucking asking for it.

Nor should you. Thing is, they don't realize they're making excuses.

Yeah, and they get MAD AS HELL when you point out that they are.

Which is at least SOMETHING.

We at least give OUR journalists a head start.  Sometimes they make it all the way to Russia, where they ask for political asylum.

Let's just roll that around in our mouths a bit.  THEY GO TO RUSSIA TO ASK FOR POLITICAL ASYLUM.

HAW HAW HAW!

Dead people in general, or people killed in bombings and such-like?

Go for overall death under "violent circumstances".

I don't believe that Snowden wasn't allowed to run off with that data.  HE probably thinks he was slicker than goose shit, but my guess is that the leak was allowed to happen, just to see what they could GET AWAY WITH.  What the American public would stand.

And what do you know?  We'll put up with ANYTHING, and most Americans think SNOWDEN was the bad guy.

Some chick on a crocheting blog is boycotting the Olympics. Not because Putin is enabling the murder of homosexuals and gender-queer people in his country. Not because he's as crazy as a bag full of cats. No. Because Snowden is there and Snowden is a bastard. That dirty, dirty bastard. Disillusioning us about our safe and comfy government overlords.

People don't care about civil rights unless they have some sort of vested interest in them, generally speaking. Doesn't affect them. Now doesn't affect me works in certain circumstances if the person happens to be rational. I once knew a straight libertarian who was pro-gay marriage, before libertarianism was hijacked by social conservatives. His rational was, doesn't affect me (i.e. Doesn't affect my marriage), so why should I deny them the same?

On the flip side of that, my American grandmother would occasionally talk about gay people to us when we were kids. No judgment on it, just to let us know they existed. In the past decade, she was vocal about her support for same sex marriage. Turns out her godson/nephew is gay, and well, another nephew was gay, and there was some question about one of my uncles.

She was an observant Catholic, too.
