The world has gone completely topsy-turvy
Lindsay Lohan Has Digital Breast Reduction.
Teen actress Lindsay Lohan’s breasts have been digitally reduced for forthcoming Disney film Herbie: Fully Loaded, to avoid offending family audiences.
And by way of contast:
SpeakSpeak’s position has always been that the debate over “indecency” on television is laughably, cry-ably unimportant. There are important things going on in the world.
The real issue behind the indecency debate is the Right’s attempt to co-opt culture, to mold it in the Right’s own image…It’s not a war on “indecency.” It’s a war on tolerance.
And it’s spreading.</b>
From the Christian Science Monitor:
A recent spate of hate-related incidents around the country has raised a troubling question: Is there something about the mood in the US today – perhaps spurred by Americans dying in combat abroad, plus the cultural and political war at home over issues like same-sex marriage, judgeships, and immigration – that is leading in some instances to threats and attacks?
Recent incidents include cross burnings in North Carolina, threats against gay students on an Oregon campus, disruptions of anti-immigration meetings by those charging border vigilantes with racism, anti-Semitic graffiti in the Queens borough of New York, a whites-only group recruiting in Michigan, white separatists harassing Japanese residents in Las Vegas, and a rise in anti-Muslim activity.</i>
