america has a seriously retarded bunch of idiots in control. who elected these fuckwits?

[Skacky]

Don't worry, we have the same bunch of fuckers in France too, but it's always sad news to see that kind of shit.

[dux]

I'm too lazy to read all that. Explain it to me in as few words as possible.

They want to make pirating music/games/movies/etc. a 5 year felony. In America, once you're convicted with 3 felonies, you go to prison for the rest of your life.

it's a video dux. a video stream.

basically: paid off representatives all voting no, silently, against various amendments that would protect human rights and freedom of speech on the internet. a collection of people who don't understand the internet, are voting on something that could see mass censorship across america.

here is a small collection retarded:

someone suggested "Bing" as a legitimate search engine

someone held up the entire proceedings for half an hour because some guy posted somethign "offensive" on twitter during her time to talk

none of them understand what an IP address is, they don't understand that an IP address can change and that a website is not an ip address - they voted against an amendment that would clarify that for future legal cases

they don't understand DNS

they don't really understand the way the internet works, one of them suggested they get "nerds" to explain it to them because they openly don't understand how the internet works

one of the guys (mr watt) is one of the most rabid idiots in american politics, everything he has said has been pure retarded bullshit, he is so obviously paid off it's not even funny

and so much, so much more. they were talking about toasters with ip addresses. and they brought up a case where a fax machine was sued.

i want to go to america in the future but this kind of shit scares the fuck out of me. it's like watching rome fall.

I looked at the stream for a bit and had no idea what was going on. Some girl was taking votes on some shit. 21 no 11 yes for whatever. Cool.

QFT.

This so called democracy we keep preaching about doesn't exist, elections have been rigged many times. Russia certainly has corruption, but so does pretty much every other country... Just take a look at the aftermath of OWS.
