"This has got to be some type of conservative plot to restrict free-thinking attitudes," Plastic contributor Star Freed wrote in the site's chat area earlier this week. "I'm sure of it."
I think it is kind of funny how many conservatives would see big media as a liberal plot to restrict free-thinking attitudes. Just makes me wonder who or what is in charge. Are we all fighting the wrong enemy in blaming the left or the right?
The Federal Republic of Me has determined that the site www.slashdot.org is detrimental to all our health. The incesant trolling and remarks by people who have done little more than read the quick blurb on the homepage for a story without knowing any real details and facts has created problems far too long.
My army of cats will be decending on the slashdot network to seize its hardware while a few will be sent to eat CmdrTaco.
But (and I know you liberatarians will scream) his stance on to many issues is that "The Industry Will Sort it Out".
It all depends on what form of libertarian that you are. An economic liberatarian would be possitivly delighted by this outcome as the less restrictions on bussiness and capitalism the better. Think along the lines of Ayn Rand. A civil liberatarian would be scared at the loss of our privacy and freedom. Full (economic and civil) liberatarians do not generally fall too well into the left or right catagories of politics or into the major parties. Yet there are those who fit comfortably well into either the Democratic Party (civil) or Republican Party (economic) in theory.
I knew that one day majoring in political science would actually come in handy.
