You are being watched as you blog

My last blogblurt was quite innocuous; although the title contained the words “weapons” and “campaign” and it did mention that the Man could be foolish. On my next visit to the site, I noticed an ad tag in the header: “Conservative Politics”.
Now, I have 1 blog friend, who hasn’t had a blog since 4 June. I have not received any feedback or comment on my call to increase the global campaign against the necktie (do not despair – we shall overcome). The point is why and how was I so identified?
My conclusion is that it was done by machine, which I resent. Politics are matters of the heart as much as the head. I do not believe that the intertwining recipe of intellect and emotion can be replicated by machine. Ergo: I cannot deny the utilitarian value of stereotypes, but I can resent it.
However, on occasion, the odd anarchic tactic may justifiably or at least understandably, be used to assuage the bruised psyche, (surely? … if used only moderately) Tough tofu, you word weed wimp – you are what you are labelled; machines don’t recognise slimy grovels… do they?
To hell with it, I will perservere, like the Crusader, whose name I bear, in the path of virtue & righteousness (I refute his religious intolerance though, without which, he would not have gone a-crusading , I suppose).
Soo, check my tags out next week, let’s see if I garner any more Big Bro interest and labels.
Get off my back, Jack – political values change, like people; tolerance is elastic and the centre moves!
I am unique & and reject your label.
Wow! I am so radical…yeah right!

  1. Hi there

    Ditto to above.

    addition to tie subject – Here we are trying to stop all our offspring trying to wear the darn things at school etc etc, and my son has just started at Grammar (or is it Grammer) school, and has to wear a business suit and tie….. poor thing

    If the comment above is refering to someone close to home, the reason i’ve been silent, is recently a storm decided to take out it’s revenge on my hard drive, hence no computer for three weeks, as for the weeks prior to that – I have no excuss.

  2. Ha ha! Bril! Micky, you’re scaring me! You’re such a rebel without a cause that next time you get on a plane, you may arise suspicions of your fellow-flyers… just that look on defiance and a two day stubble could unsettle people, you know 😉 It cracked me up!
