Why They Don't Like Bloggers

Tony Blair didn't like Bloggers. That should tell you all we're on the right lines.

This is actually a serious point. We hear much moaning from the powers that be about the nasty spiteful voices on the bloggosphere.

And the reason why is plain.

They've forgotten what it was like in the days when there was such a thing as informed public opinion.
Intelligent conversation that takes place amongst the people.
The man on the Clapham Omnibus.

And the reason why they've forgotten it, is because for a while now it hasn't existed.

People in our societies had stopped interacting with real people as much, and had their opinions pumped to them by a one way medium, television.

Very easy to think it's all OK if your views on life come from Soaps.
Oh sure, they deal with 'social issues', but have you ever heard them discuss politics in the Vic?

And now they hear voices again, voices of people discussing things again.
Things that matter.
And not people approved by them to disseminate opinion.

So that's why they don't like us.

They know where they can stick it, too.

So carry on spreading whatever it is you spread, say whatever it is you blog to say.
The rest of us want you, as much as our dear leaders don't.
You give something of you for the rest of us to share on a regular basis.
That's a good thing to do.
Which has already led this far.
