Evil usually works by taking some kind of cirtue and turning it to the service of injury, in the name of protection, destruction, in the name of protection, lies, in teh name of truth. SURE Senator foghorn, we understand you want to protect us from the CROSSIVE EVIL of the uninvited sight of a revolting human TIT, besides, it distracts us from watching all the action on the news tonight of all them people over THERE getting the shit shot out of the- for a good cause of course- right there on my TV tube. But I remember with some trembling that some of us sickos LIKE to look at tits! Well, it's for our own good, so it must be ok.
And of course, RADICAL political concepts. Very disruptive, disturbing, causes problems, can't have that, espically niow with all these terrorists. Anything less would be- unpatriotic, maybe even unAmerican? But surely it's safe to trust a REAL AMERICAN to issue licenses and stamps; after all, it could NEVER happen HERE... Who issues the licenses? Who decides? Who gurantees they do it right? And then we come to the evil of the evil, the worst of the worst. CAPITALISTS attempting to SELL things BY EMAIL! AAIIIEEEE!!! LYNCH THEM AT ONCE! Um, is inviting commerce covered under the ruberic of protected free speech? Or is it ok to censor on the basis of content when the content is commercial? Sure, it's getting service all alogn the path for free. Bill them. No discrimination please, that's unfair. Samo as for everyone else. Damn, this is getting intresting, from a sociological and geopolitical stance. For my own good, of course. Of course.
