themattsmith: the-mtblog: newsweek: Behold! What the Stop SOPA blackout managed to accomplish in 24 hours. This also reveals how distressingly ignorant many political representatives are. It seems they just blindly supported it without actually knowing what the hell it was about, and then when they were forced to find out, they learned, and changed their minds. Jesus Christ, WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN WANT!? The entire point of “democracy” is that “political representatives” are accountable to their constituencies. The image above shows exactly the ideal expected behavior when a group of constituents takes direct action and voices disapproval to their representatives. Do you guys really, truly expect government TO READ YOUR MINDS?
