So someone posted a link to radio jock talking about how Obama doesn't respect troops because at a Medal of Honor ceremony, the soldier's family was put in the third row behind congressmen. Two pages of people badmouthing Obama later, I posted a link to photographic evidence that not only was the family in the first row, but the people around them weren't politicians, but other Medal of Honor recipients.
Now I'm actually having to defend that because the thread is dogpiling on me about how it doesn't matter what the truth is, this is something that Obama would have done anyway.
Like what? People will say out loud that they prefer lies to truth because the lies conform to their world view? I know that's how people act, but they full on admit it proudly?
Is the world insane? I think the world is insane. Do you guys think the world is insane?
I think people that expect reasonable responses to things they've entirely made up might be insane.
Then again, the Daily Mail has made an entire industry out of it.
Speaking of them, did you hear about their campaign to have an online porn filter?
Yes. They reported on a piece of research that found a bit over half of 14 - 18 year olds "had viewed pornographic material online" with the headline "HALF OF SCHOOLKIDS ADDICTED TO NET PORN".
To be fair to them, that is an impressively tall conclusion to reach from a standing start.

Man, the 80s were awesome because people weren't yet freaking out about violent imagery.
Water guns that closely emulate real guns? Including look and sound? Awesome.
this was also before orange tips!
my brother and i both had the AK-47 gun. it was so rad. these things were the king of the water gun fights until super soaker came out with the Super Soaker 50.
I used to have a toy bolt action rifle that had a real metal barrel and wood stock. When you pulled the bolt back, it even had a fake metal bullet in the chamber and it made a nice "click" sound when you pulled the trigger.
So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.

My favourite part of this is that their justification is a 14 year old was groomed by a paedophile via facebook.
Which isn't something their proposed filter would block!
I'm actually not opposed to the idea of ISPs offering a filter, provided that the cost of implementing it is borne by those that use it rather than being imposed on all ISP customers.

I had meticulously planned the day around the fact that I had not slept all night, and then it turns out that my brother is coming over for dinner with the family.

I swear this happens to me every time I've slept like crap.

Any such filter service should only be able to be initiated by the account holder, and no outside force.
I've got to redraft that NI Politician Wide letter I was thinking of.
They're not actually as interested in getting it implemented as they are in having something that provides their readership with a target for their morning spluttering outrage.

I'd be more interested in an anti-shock image filter.
Does this exist as a browser plugin? I'd like something which proactively scans downloaded images and stuff and filters out goatse and worse things.

The one bright side to having migraines is you can use them as an excuse to get out of inconvenient social arrangements.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

My mom wouldn't let me play with GI Joes until I was like, 11.
But He-Man was fine. Nothing wrong with a big buff barbarian with swords and axes who rides a green jaguar and fights a living skeleton wizard.
Ahhh memories...
Somebody should let them know

You won't be using it for a while.
I'm trying to visualize how this stance would be reported. Something like:
PORNOGRAPHY EXTREMIST: PROTECTING INNOCENTS FROM SMUT "DUMB"
The greatest.
I'd be more interested in an anti-shock image filter.

the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
They usually cite the fact that you already have to opt-in to access adult content on mobile networks.
What they don't mention is that filter doesn't actually work. I never have and I can access plenty of porn from my phone.
Yeah, when the US has 0 foreign policies and also there are no guns being smuggled into Canada from the US, I'll stop commenting on American politics.
