One Reason Why Censorship Sounds Good:

A-holes.

The internet has made me a hater of people. If it wasn't for the internet, I'd actually believe that the youth of this generation actually has a hope of progressing modern society. The worst of it would probably be the actual forums of discussions that litter and plague the internet, where children and idiots alike actually have a chance to spew out opinions that have spawned from the repugnant stench of gray matter encased and fermenting in a container of bone. The things they talk about are of pure idiocy served with a side dish of poor grammar and syntax. It infuriates me when they insult the comments of a fellow forummer based on the fact that they did not understand what he was talking about. And in response, all they can do is throw a bunch of vulgar language around and whine and bitch like its constructive in some way. The worst part of it is, they actually press "Submit" after they've consciously and soberly typed up what they wanted the internet community (the world) to view and judge them by. Where do these people even get computers with internet? I really should just take away everybody's keyboards. Make them write everything in ASCII code with 0's and 1's. Then they'll actually ponder what in their mind they really want to say. If the comment would devalue the human race as a whole, they probably won't say it.


Oh, and not to mention the videos on the massively multi-user social interaction medium of Youtube. I see it as the epitome of human achievement in all things not in literature, science, art, engineering, sports, philosophy, and history. In short, nothingness. Granted, there are numerous videos which are amazing and certainly worth the viewing time, but said videos are usually associated with one of the aforementioned worthwhile achievements of man or nature (i.e. cover songs, instructional videos, natural phenomena, etc.). As for the rest of the videos that aren't merely illegally recorded off of cable television or legally posted by recording studios, they are the worst. If these videos were people, I would advocate their genocide. They include nasally junior high children showing off a poorly executed card trick or how to use their new crappy paintball gun. They might also be stating their stance on a certain topic of discussion of which nobody in the rational world really gives a rat's ass about. Again, they voice their opinions ineloquently and their points of debate are terribly based and easily refuted with either universally known facts or simple, hardcore logic.

Of course, there will be those who claim "nO!!!!11 THERS SUMTHIN CALD TEH 1ST EMENDMNT IN THE DECLERASHUN OF INDEPENDANCE WICH SEZ THAT THER TEH FREEDUM OF EXPRESHUN SO UR FKIN STUPID YOU IDOT!!! LOLLL!! -t3hG4m3M4s+3r STRIKES AGAIN"
Yeah? So be it. But in real life terms, this is the equivalent of standing in a mall at 2 in the afternoon while a good friend whom you respect is getting sexually violated by a group of raggamuffins. You try to stop them because it is obviously wrong, but there are a bunch of people that restrain you, telling you to shut up because those people have a right to be raping your friend. Don't get me wrong, I'm certain that the freedom of expression is extremely important to the foundation of the United States, and I'm all for it when it needs to be used to dutifully and rightfully inform the world about important ongoings in all social, political, and scientific matters alike. But when that right gets abused to these extremes, something is terribly wrong with man kind. At least Youtube's "Mark as spam" button has got the right idea. Now if only that could be applied videos and users...

In conclusion, I would not have known that there are so many ridiculously dimwitted, gullible, ignorant, thickheaded, nonsensical people roaming unchecked in such a developed, industrialized, free country if it wasn't for the internet.
