Wednesday Update: GOOD NEWS
That vile impersonator who snatched Captain Fogg's screen ID has been identified and exposed. Congratulations to Captain Fogg for catching the culprit. This means we can remove comment moderation and return to business as usual.
Monday Announcement: COMMENT MODERATION TEMPORARILY ENABLED
Last week, someone hijacked Captain Fogg’s screen ID moniker … leaving despicable comments under his name at various blogs. To thwart this vicious stuff, the Swash Zone will activate the comment moderation function to filter all comments before they are posted. It means there will be delays in posting comments, and our forum will be less interactive until the hijacking stops. We are determined to take any/all steps necessary to protect our community. Hopefully, this inconvenience will be temporary.
These childish cowards are soooo tiresome! With any luck, they will catch some disease like swine flu or gonorrhea to occupy their time - one can only hope...

I think we've only seen the beginning and it's going to get much worse.
ReplyDeleteWe figured out a century ago that huge agglomerations of money trump democracy and did something about it. Since Reagan we've been told that huge agglomerations of money were good for the peasants and we've been moving toward feudalism ever since.
I'm told that there is a case coming before the Supreme court that may allow corporations to contribute unlimited amounts of money to campaigns which would amount to having corporate congress and corporate presidents which would essentially allow what the birthers are afraid of: President Sony, President Pfizer, President Toyota. . . .
The constitution? It's whatever the President says it is.
It remains to be see whether the capitulation is real or not. If a post seems all out of character, it may not be real.

ReplyDeleteThe case is Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. This case could allow the right leaning court to "overturn the corporate spending ban recognized in Austin v. Michigan Chamber of Commerce, as well as its decision in 2003 to uphold McCain-Feingold as constitutional" (link.
Not long until global corporate feudalism becomes unstoppable. I wonder how many of the faithful will be happy when they find out at last they are no better off than serfs -- and how long after that until they decide to blame it on Liberals.
