A Social Technology

While it is clear that people are spending less time with each other than they did before TV and the internet, I've found more people to whom I can relate on YouTube than I ever have in real life.

Disinfo

If you consider yourself enough of a member of the "counter-culture" to be into Richard Metzger, you should check out his YouTube channel. He obviously doesn't have the budget that he used to, but god bless him, he's trying.

Why?

I've long wondered, why is it that Alex Jones doesn't quote from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion? You'd think that kind of thing would be right up his alley. He's certainly had ideas just as incredible as the Protocols. What keeps these truthers and birthers from drawing the line just before they cross over into the totally unpalatable? It's things like that that make believe that Jones and Glenn Beck may be faking it and they don't really believe the shit they say. If they are faking it, however, they're absolute geniuses, which I don't think is the case.
