New friends, thanks for joining, thanks for inviting, accepting. Facebook is just a notch in the stick of history. You oldies recall when PCs first made the scene Big Time, in 1981? How the Apple II was going to change and liberate the world? Bah, humbug. True, FB is THE Fad, but it's promise is similarly hollow! As long as the majority of users lack the barest notion of how, let alone WHY we should use this remarkable technology for the Global Good, it is likely to remain a kind of interactive Trivial Pursuits on a previously unimaginable scale. A Big Forking Deal that might have made a tangible difference when there was widespread political consciousness. You know, back in the day, before the Gay Marriage issue was inflated in stature to the sort of colossal proportions we've seen in recent weeks. Sorry, it just ain't all THAT important, folks. Not so important we need to hear about it every day, seventeen thousand times.
Don't get me wrong - I don't dislike Gays as a group. I have no "moral" objections to same-sex marriage. I just feel very strongly Gays and Lesbians want the WRONG things: namely, to join the fucking military and to get married!
Meanwhile, 14 million Pakistanis "displaced" by epic flooding. An uptick in car bombings in Iraq. The usual Afghan Quagmire. But please, don't stop, Main Stream Media, and all the rest of you as well. The clarion call remains: "Gay Marriage, Gay marriage, Same-sex marriage, Lesbian Potato Chip Factory, Transgendered Bicycle Repair, Bisexual Horticultural Association, Transvestite Gun Clubs, Same Sex Unions... Oh, did I remember to adequately emphasize GAY MARRIAGE!?!?!"
Please, don't stop! We haven't heard enough about GAY THIS AND GAY THAT, the most important issue on the PLANET! No make that the fucking Solar System, No the entire GALAXY!!!
Is it because you "cultural revolutionaries" have no substantial, real issues, independent of self-seeking IDENTITY POLITICS AT ITS WORST?
