Knucklehead demands HisSpace

Filed in: Meta Add comments

One bone I have always picked with America is everyone’s need to sue, sue and then sue some more. Whenever things don’t go our way, we expect the legal wing of the nanny state to keep us safe and warm, like a fuzzy. Take this knucklehead:

MySpace Sued for Deleting Profiles (Updated)

Brian Mora alleges in his complaint (.pdf) that MySpace deleted his account twice, in October and November, on the false grounds that he’d violated the MySpace terms of service. In truth, he says, he was kicked off the site “because an administrator … simply disliked something displayed on the petitioner’s profile.” His case is filed in U.S. District Court in the Western District of Missouri.

Mora’s seeking a court order to force MySpace to stop interfering with his “freedom of lawful speech and expression” as well as his support of certain, intriguingly-unnamed political candidates. Elsewhere, in a message board post, Mora vows that when he wins his suit and owns MySpace-parent company News Corp. he’ll move Fox News’ coverage further to the right.

Okay, MySpace is not the public green. It is a corporation looking to make bank. This is like complaining that the local paper will not print your Letter to the Editor. Well, Mr. Mora, here is a virtual love letter meant straight for your heart, STFU. If you don’t like it, start your own damn blog and/or social networking site.

The world, both real and virtual, does not have to tailor itself to your very whim. This is like saying since ICanACheeseBurger didn’t post your LOLCat, you are going to take them to court to post your pussy. See, while MySpace and countless other social networking sites love to have you around to generate traffic for their sponsors, they are not required to put up with bullshit. So instead of being an American and starting your own endeavour into the virtual frontier, you act like a Nazi. Yes, I said Nazi. Why?

Mr. MorA, if you move Fox News’ coverage further to the right, you are in Goebbels country. So really, STFU.
