Idiocy in the Blogosphere

Paotie wrote an interesting piece that was accepted at BlogCritics Magazine with the title "Idiocy in the Blogosphere" that started off with a question:

I got an email from a friend the other night asking me what I thought of a blog that asked the question of why people make negative comments on other people’s blogs. In reading the article, I came away with the impression that many bloggers despise the negative comments made by people who criticize a point, argument, perspective, poems, videos, or whatever else is published on a blog.

The article continues to describe the kind of bloggers (and commenters) that exist out there with apt descriptions including how some bloggers are simply not the Wall Street Journal types. Paotie, just as well, recognizes (as do many others) the differences between various kinds and types of blogs who are on the short end of the stick.

There's lots of other blogs that do nothing but spew trash on a daily basis, and people snort it up like lines of cocaine at a party hosted by Lindsay Lohan.

But later on into his article he links to the Style magazine which I found out that Hillary Clinton was being disparaged upon like she was the plague (she is now to the Deaf community) all because of my recent blog (I would certainly think that'd be the case) back in June that discussed her relationship with the deaf and hard of hearing community such as the cochlear implant industry, SHHH, and even AGBell. Pretty apparent that Clinton is slowly being dumped upon by many people in the the Deaf community. Looks like my effort is paying off when I dug around and found some juicy details about Billary Clinton.

Paotie even chastised a certain person for even suggesting to the Deaf community on not to call 911 for help fearing that the end result would be that of police brutality. I even laughed when the author in Style magazine said "hearing impaired." Some people in the media will never learn. Yet, no outrage over the "hearing impaired" comment?

Ok. Maybe they're not "angry" enough.

And then we see Paotie makes a valid point near the end of his article.

If you don't like a blog that you read, then don't continue reading it, and especially don't go back for more cyber-horse manure to be shoveled into your mouth.Just sit down, shut up, and open your mind.

If you're pissed off by now, then you've proved my article right. If you're not pissed off and disagree with me, then good for you. I don't care if you agree with me or not. If you feel you need to dissect this article, then you've got way too much time on your hands. If you want to post a negative comment, please do so.

BTW, Paotie is deaf, lives in Colorado, an avid MMA fan, signs and certainly gets angry upon seeing idiocy in action.
