Re: Exhibit 1 (none / 0)

My speech, generally, is aporetic. My opinions about certain, specific current events are not, because they are mine until I care to share them.

it assumes a great deal of background knowledge to the particular case you are highlighting and assumes people will read a great deal of linked material
I don't assume. To the contrary, after twenty-five years navigating the innerboobs, I have seen things, as Roy says, that defy all claims to the universal, the singularity, the "hive" mind of humanity and the One Economy. I ought not expect readers to read the links; I ought expect readers to criticize and excerpt, because its the wrong excerpt, no telling why, except it's TOO LONG.

Yet that doesn't stop me trying to pull the jailhouse lawyers together. For real.

Re: Exhibit 1 (none / 0)

None of us have any entitlement to be read, much less promoted, recommended, commented or acted upon. But for me communication, learning and collaboration is what it's all about. Spouting opinions for it's own sake is little more than a venting of ego. As an editor, I see myself as haveing a responsibility to try and make this blog more accessible, enjoyable, educative, and widely read. As you can see, I am doing a terrible job. It doesn't stop me from trying...

"entitlement to be read" (none / 0)

< wipes tears >

Now there's an interesting idea in search of a public forum against censorship perhaps.

being utterly bored with the constant misdirection of conversation is not the same thing as censoring it. Ciao
