    Minutes ago Matt Drudge snuck into the Alex Jones Radio
    broadcasting site to pat Alex Jones on the back for his astounding
    ability to remain an individual and a trail blazer who believes in
    Rugged Individualism.Digressing as to this Country and what it means to be free
    and a Patriot.Matt Drudge the infamous recluse was camera shy,of
    course.But his message was vast and all consuming.He explained how
    he Doesn't DO Social Media.No Facebook or Twitter or even YouTube.
    Because he feels it's been carefully crafted as GroupThink.That there
    really is too much pressure to be liked with comments and like or
    dislike.It's basically garbage in and garbage out.It's all Corporate
    groupthink.Meant to subtly influence our ability to be Individuals.
    That one really isn't much of an individual on Twitter or Facebook.
    Not much in the way of substantive anything.It's like Kindergarten for
    those old enough to read or conveniently dismiss that they are in fact an adult.
    Social media is a corporate plot to distract us from important and serious
    news and any ramification that impact our future.It is custom tailored
    to Transform us,into this Kafkaesque Other World where reality is
    what we're told or supposed to believe in.Social media is an attempt to
    play chess with the character of mankind.Tinker with our sensibilities and
    streamline a new way of approaching and going about our daily lives.
    It is the takeover of Free Thinking.

    A recent news clip of sports commentators remarks about the vacuous coeds in the stands who were engrossed in taking selfies is a snapshot of that "Other World". These girls were actually upset by the airing of their absurd indulgence.

    I keep telling my wife not to use social media. It's a bit like the CB radio craze of the 60's and 70's. It started out as seeming like a good idea but quickly deteriorated into a pig pen of idiots. I'm old enough to remember Hula Hoops and the crowds of morons falling all over each other to buy a piece of plastic tubing stapled on one end into a circle. There is an endless supply of money to made on PT Barnum's axiom that a sucker is born every minute. It's a sad state of affairs that people will eagerly throw away the gold of privacy and free speech to get the glitter of cheap gossip and mindless chatter. They create a file on themselves with their imbecilic blathering that any agency is more than happy to use against them. It truly is a sad state of affairs.

    I'm glad you assed { asked }. That his days are numbered.He was informed
    by a Supreme Court Jurist that those in charge { I'm guessing Politicans
    and bureaucrats } have enough votes to change our Copyright laws.
    Meaning it will be outlawed for those to use or put up on their own sites
    OTHERS headlines.Or content of other's Headlines.
    That is what The Drudge Report does.It uses headlines of various news
    and places them in one arena for consumption.The headlines are used to attract
    ones attention and read further as to what is going on ... News Wise.
    Not to be confucious as in the Movie - The Apartment - and the Billy Wilder
    meme of " cookie-wise ".

    " That's the way it crumbles.... cookie-wise,"
    -- The Apartment

    I have a weather rock in the yard I use for predicting weather.
    if it is wet it is raining
    if it is white it is snowing
    if it is moving there is an earthquake
    if it is dry it isnt raining

    In this I am like Drudge.I see no appeal in Social media.I'm not interested in
    being like a brain-numbed Kardashian zombie.Facebook and Twitter are
    just a playground with near worthless chatter and gossip and chit chat.
    I've lectured Miss Smarty at her Bar & Grill numerous times about inane { hate that word }
    Chit Chat.I have little to no interest in being Liked or referraled { a word } around
    this playground where it is assumed one is an Individual.They are not.
    Drudge explains it in his interview on Alex Jones Radio yesterday.That it's all a
    big conspiracy to take our attention span from us and replace with this faux notion
    of Individualized banter.The numbers of those who Twitter or Facebook are blown
    way out of proportion.Just like the way this Government has falsely represented the
    Unemployment number.It's all an effort to confuse us with repetitious and conflicting
    reality.Which as Drudge explained is why the Word { Isis } then { Isil } was created.
    Why our culture is devolving into craziness of trends and nonsensical behavior.
    As I've explained it is a version of Dadaism or the surreal and twisted movement
    to undo reality and change society for the worse { or the Dumb and Dumber }.
    The better to watch as one goes to Grandmas house.As silvery fangs are seen
    rebounding shimmers of light from behind large oak trees as even the moon
    casts a grimace of doubt upon our dwindling humanity.

    yes Ma'am, just the facts.If not for Drudge and alternate media this country
    would be one immense playground of stuttering idiocy around every street corner
    where even Kafka would not tread.Where even the green of nature is embarrassed
    to play.

    Yes Net Neutrality also.But the changing of Copyright laws effects everyones
    Free Speech.It is one way to Implement Communism and take away our first
    amendment.It is already in place,
    Communism as like what happened in 1917 Russia first had to Replace
    the Church with the State.Which is what this White House is attempting.
    Keep the Priests and Rabbi and Clergy in place but change their message
    ever so slightly in increments.Like what Obamacare did to The Little Sisters
    of the Poor.And this Pope.The Pontiff is Now out talking politics.
    About the need for redistribution of wealth,pay equity and massive immigration
    for the needy.Plus environment controls.
    We now saw firsthand how Pope Francis was being groomed as a puppet
    in a Ministerial position to usher in a new wave of Socialism as an accepted
    alternative to capitalism.

    I know little about "Social Media" (nor, for that matter, the "Anti-Social Media" that is comprised of relentless, flatulent bombast via radio waves) but must concede that I am favourably disposed to any show business entertainer who sports a hat.

    Whether Drudge swiped the haberdashing shtick from Walter Winchell or Jimmy Duarte, it's a raffish stylistic statement.

    (The Great Flatu sometimes sporting a cheap Chinese-made proletarian topper is pathetic, but he could certainly use a head cover.)

    Highly recommended and more befitting his elitist bank account:

    My friends and I refer to Facebook as "Face-(*)(*)(*)(*)" (last part rhymes with 'muck').... :smile:

    By and large, Facebook is little more than an unproductive amusement for people with way too much time on their hands. At its worst, I can see how a person's Facebook page and posts provide ample information to absolutely ruin their own lives. I had a Facebook account about five years ago for all of maybe three months. After I realized what this thing is, I ditched it.

    As for Drudge? Well, yeah, we're both Conservatives, but I'm more the "economic" type of Con, with almost none of the "social" Con in my mindset. I don't really give a damn what people do to themselves, so long as it doesn't involve me in any way. A general observation about Conservative "predictors", though, is that they are often in the camp that suggests you run out and buy gold and silver because the stock market is going to crash and the grocery shelves will be bare. Uh-huh... about the ninth or tenth time you hear this sort of big panic alert over about three or four years, the shock-value is diminished considerably....

    First off this is key.I should have chosen another thread header { title for the Thread }
    Matt Drudge doesn't even write a column.He does not write articles,have a column
    or makes comments.All he does is provide Links with Headlines for OTHER'S
    articles or news of the day.So Drudge is not in the business to comment let
    alone offer " predictions ".I needed to be clear about that.
    He wasn't making a prediction but merely decided to go public on Alex Jones
    radio for whatever reason.Maybe he felt he needed to.Since by his own admission
    his days are numbered as the Inventor and curator and man responsible for
    Offering on a daily if not hourly basis ... The Drudge Report.
    He admitted to have a good run.20 years.But the tea leaves are no longer reading in his
    favor ... apparently.With the current coups cropping up everywhere in all ways.
