Paradise on earth, minimalist edition?

While I plan to continue posting the flyers in numerical order, followed by un-numbered flyers in roughly chronological order from their date of appearance, I'm going to make an exception for this very unusual new flyer...

Flyers have been appearing again this week with the normal title and layout, but among them this afternoon was this:

I'm assuming this has something to do with the local news here. As mentioned earlier, our city council approved the Fairness Ordinance on Monday. But by Tuesday, several groups were planning a petition drive to have the ordinance brought before the public in the next general election.

I don't know if you can even read the tiny text in the corner of this otherwise blank flyer, but basically it's just the legal boilerplate that goes at the end of each page of a petition form. Somebody must have a petition drive on their vision board!

Paranoia or prophecy?

Things are getting back to normal: traffic is dying down, Aksarbent made their video private, and CBPL appeared again at this week's city council meeting. And the flyers continue to appear.

Among the other wild comments that have come my way, I was particularly struck by a link to ACTUAL "SUBLIMINAL" LAMP POSTS in an article that was published just yesterday! I'm stuck speechless by that one: paranoia or prophecy?

So many things about the video situation continue to irritate me. While the hate speech/illness similarities were depressing, I find hasty, sloppy, unresearched "journalism" being quickly produced for consumption by people who don't read accurately and are compelled to add their own ridiculous levels of hyperbole just as terrifying. Reading many of the comments around the 'net, I'd say there's a dissertation waiting to be written about the ineptitudes of "crowd-sourced" information flow and the lack of journalistic rigor in an age that necessitates comments sections on news sites to keep revenue flowing. The contrast between the content of the flyers collected here and commentary from the public at large seems to be diminishing every day...

PS: there are a few flyers appearing below this post that you might not have seen. The blog is set up to "schedule" posts every few days, but I had reverted the new stuff to draft status. I just released them back to the schedule...

And by the way...

The fairness ordinance whose public hearing was excerpted in the "video that swept the nation" just passed, 5-0! Congrats, Lincolnites!
