Politics As Pornographie
Wherein Pornographie takes on reall politicall and social value, thus showing us the emptinesse of our notions of politics and societie.
I keep getting Fox News and American Idol mixed up.
They are both rather glitzy and heavily populated by smiling beauties. I suppose it is to be expected ever since I stumbled across the Ratty Right Townhall site where babes in T-shirts opine politically.
I wonder whether this tendency to appeal to the lowest possible denominator of the populace to be the latter day form of panem et circenses?
If so, then we must expect in the near future that Porn must not disappear from the Internet, but it will be transformed into something with a political message.
This is not too far-fetched.
Many political messages - Ann Coulter most definitely - are porney already.
