| schestowitz | he never did | Nov 13 16:39 |
| schestowitz | I appreciate it if/when you help the cause of informing people | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | it's not Gates | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | Not unique to him | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | It's a general phenomenon | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | We need to immunise people against that | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | Plutpcrats as heroes | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | Those who rob us as "success stories" and "idols" | Nov 13 16:40 |
| schestowitz | We need to make people resistant to and sceptic of that same old propaganda pattern... they just need to get the tools | Nov 13 16:41 |
| schestowitz | Like sceptical skills and Scientific Method to reject placebo, quacks, religion, superstition, afterlife.. | Nov 13 16:41 |
| schestowitz | We need to ,make it socially accesptable to: | Nov 13 16:42 |
| schestowitz | 1) criticise gates the 'charitable | Nov 13 16:42 |
| schestowitz | 2) oppose war | Nov 13 16:42 |
| schestowitz | 3) hold up our contry's leaders to scrutiny wiythout it being called "treasonous | Nov 13 16:42 |
| schestowitz | etc etc | Nov 13 16:42 |
| schestowitz | In the past, being homophobic was cool | Nov 13 16:42 |
| schestowitz | That has changed | Nov 13 16:43 |
| schestowitz | In the past, being against Michael Jackson was cool | Nov 13 16:43 |
| schestowitz | Not it's seen as cursing a poor dead man.. not a child molester | Nov 13 16:43 |
| schestowitz | The media shapes what it socially acceptable | Nov 13 16:43 |
| qu1j0t3 | yes | Nov 13 16:43 |
| schestowitz | And we need to take back truth from the media which serves the Bills and Ruperts | Nov 13 16:44 |
| qu1j0t3 | they frame the acceptable image of Gates, just as Pravda framed the acceptable image of the leader | Nov 13 16:44 |
| schestowitz | So that we can have the same water cooler jokes we have about Rupert.. but have them about the crook called Bill Gates | Nov 13 16:44 |
| schestowitz | Without being called "hater" or "conspiracy theorist" etc. | Nov 13 16:44 |
| qu1j0t3 | diverge from the media view, and you look like a k00k - a protestor, a hippie, a weirdo, a freak, an activist, a menace to society | Nov 13 16:44 |

| schestowitz | Blair and Gates ... a pair | Nov 13 16:44 |
| qu1j0t3 | same: Obama | Nov 13 16:45 |
| schestowitz | Obama is less at fault | Nov 13 16:45 |
| schestowitz | Bush more so | Nov 13 16:45 |
| schestowitz | Obama inherited the war | Nov 13 16:45 |
| schestowitz | And his party was not designed to be against war | Nov 13 16:45 |
| schestowitz | He's just a figurehead | Nov 13 16:45 |
| schestowitz | Unlike Cheney, Rove, etc. | Nov 13 16:45 |
| qu1j0t3 | Obama's no less or more at fault | Nov 13 16:46 |
| schestowitz | yeah | Nov 13 16:46 |
| qu1j0t3 | he's the same thing | Nov 13 16:46 |

| schestowitz | > But why the wild difference? | Nov 13 17:17 |
| schestowitz | As I explained about a year ago (and tried to repeat in the context of AWstats-derived data), measuring traffic is a tricky thing for more reasons that I can fit in an E-mail. In one site of mine it's further complicated by cache/proxy, which means that some of my visitors read pages without even being detectable. The important thing is, there is an audience. More than 99% of bloggers write to just a handful of people and | Nov 13 17:17 |
| schestowitz | soon give up (they find excuses for why they stopped). For me, I haven't checked stats since around 2007. They became a distraction and they did nothing to improve what I produced. Rather than ego trips they can sometimes be disappointment, so why bother spending time watching them? Any time spent watching some numbers can instead be spent writing an insightful post, knowing that more than 1 person will read it. :-) | Nov 13 17:17 |
