Spike Priggen of the fantastic blog, Bedazzled, has gotten a few complaints from visitors who don’t like his occasional political posts. His reply echos my sentiments about people who complain about Boing Boing’s political posts.
[Right wing Bedazzled reader:] “I would like, however, to see the music postings somehow seperated (sp) from your other postings. I, like many others, do not hold with the same political views as you and I would like to not have to sift through your vitriole (sp) simply to access the better materials you offer. Perhaps a seperate site or some kind of sorting method can be implemented?”[Spike:] Are you f*cking crazy? I’m gonna re-design my site so I don’t offend the type of people that I think are ruining America? Why are you wasting my time with a question like that? Isn’t it enough that that the mainstream media is overwhelmingly slanted to the right? You want my blog too? F*ck You. How’s that for “vitriole”? Bottom line is I’m not gonna change anything to make wingnuts feel better about themselves while they’re here. Sorry.
