First it was bush as satan now twitter with terrorism? Everyone wants state control of the internet but the people who actually run the internet know it is difficult to have an international network under state control.
- huherto 17y agoThe funny thing is that many people were sympathetic with Chavez just because he was critical of George Bush.
- anamax 17y ago> The funny thing is that many people were sympathetic with Chavez just because he was critical of George Bush. That's not all of it. Many in the US just seem to like South American populists. Che, Castro, the Sandinistas, Shining Path (until well after it was clear that they were murderous thugs) - If you're a South American collectivist, you're popular with US "internationalists" until well after you've proven to be a murderous thug, and sometimes not even then.
