Apparently this was a false alarm caused by a serious misunderstanding!

No worries about SOPA. We're just misinformed!










...SOPA is back. Still not sure how accurate this is, since I'd really rather not go digging into politics half an hour after waking up, but I was directed to this journal here while checking my messages: hados94.deviantart.com/journal…



Looking through the comments of said journal, I just really feel the need to point out one thing.

JUST BECAUSE OBAMA IS THE POTUS DOES NOT MEAN THAT EVERY STUPID DECISION TO COME OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE IS AUTOMATICALLY HIS FRIGGIN FAULT.
IF IT WERE, WE WOULDN'T HAVE A REPUBLIC/DEMOCRACY/WHATEVERTHEHELLYOUWANTTOCALLOURGOVERNMENT. WE WOULD HAVE EITHER A DICTATORSHIP, A TYRANNY, OR A MONARCH. OUR GOVERNMENT'S POWER IS SPREAD OUT TO AVOID THIS EXACT STUPIDITY FROM BECOMING LAW ON THE SPOT.

I may have only just passed my government class, but it's kind of obvious that Obama gets more heat for what he hasn't done than praise for what he has....




I'm also gonna post a comment I made on that journal, because it pretty much sums up my whole opinion on the thing:

I'm not fond of diving into politics, but just because the president is the face of the government doesn't automatically mean this bill is his fault, remember. There's more to our government than just Obama, and more often than not a substantial amount of the House of Representatives will do whatever it takes to be on the opposite side of an issue from him. They don't cooperate and have tried several times to pass things like this to make him look bad. There are more people at fault than just Obama--if it were just him, we would have a tyranny or a monarchy....

That being said, I'm a little skeptical that it'll pass. There was -such- an uprising of artists from it last time they tried this, I doubt it'll have much weight this time around.
I can kind of understand what they're thinking, from a strictly business standpoint--businesses these days seem to focus more on monetary gain than consumer happiness. They don't want someone else making money off of their material. What they fail to realize, however, is that art is art whether you draw a picture of an elephant or write a sonnet of your favorite character. A fan community can bring new fans into the series--it's like free promotion, if you think about it. I know I wouldn't have found out about a handful of shows and movies I've seen if it weren't for interlinking communities like here on Deviantart.





Gah, it's too early to be dodging politics. I can't even spell yet....:icontiredplz:
Oh, and if anyone's confused as to what 'POTUS' means, it stands for 'President Of The United States'. It's what my family and I call Obama, because 'Potus' is fun to say :XD:



...And, while I'm at it, I should probably mention that starting Monday I'll be going back at it with school. I'm only taking one class this semester, because I was an idiot and got myself on Achademic Probation and put all my financial aid on hold, but it's a history class. Considering my worst subjects are history, politics and science, I'm gonna need to get off my rear and actually study for a change. I also might be getting a job, so we'll see...
