Our Own Arab Spring Brings Up a ?: Which One is Creepier, Anonymous Guy Fawkes Mask or Burger King King?
Hey I like the Anonymous/Occupy Movement, and I like Burger King food (so I'm eclectic and not a purist. Shoot me). But they both employ very creepy and very similar logos that I find disturbing and not inviting. Which one is worse?
By the way, the leader who manages to convince the Tea Baggers and the Anonymous that they share the same corporate enemy and can get them to work together will be the political genius who will change American history. It is in the interest of the Establishment (yes, I use that term freely and without any sense of feeling dated since it still applies more than ever) that we are divided, fractured, and against each other. The Left/Right, Humanist/Religious, Progressive/Regressive chasm really works for them. All those shouty media personalities have really helped The Man.
An Ecumenical Politician who rejects this Old World template and embraces the New Reality has his/her work cut out for them, but the condition is ripe for the picking and the reward would be great. We are having our own Arab Spring.
