Exxon's Brute Squad Hacks the Yes Men
tom_evil notes a story up on Infoshop.org about a parody site and the lack of a sense of humor in a large multinational. "One day after the Yes Men made a joke announcement of ExxonMobil's plans to turn billions of climate-change victims into a brand-new fuel called Vivoleum, the Yes Men's upstream internet service provider shut down Vivoleum.com and cut off the Yes Men's email service, in reaction to a complaint whose source they will not identify. 'Since parody is protected under US law, Exxon must think that people seeing the site will think Vivoleum's a real Exxon product, not just a parody,' said Yes Man Mike Bonanno. Exxon's policies do already contribute to 150,000 climate-change related deaths each year,' added Yes Man Andy Bichlbaum. 'So maybe it really is credible. What a resource!'"
oh, come on. you know that's not true. the u.s. is a theocracy worse than the taliban by most here. after all, we beat and kill people who don't tithe and pray to the lord and such. we punish people who get abortions, or women who talk to men who aren't in their own families, or are homosexuals.
the u.s. is nothing but a dogmatic state that has no interest in anything but pushing christianity. seriously. if you post something to this tune it will normally be modded insightful. not that the moderating system here isn't a complete scam or anything.
cmdrdildo is a fucking moron and asshat.

Do you understand that satire only works if it's based on reality, and the question at hand isn't the satire bit, but the invented numbers and finger pointing without evidence bit?
