Perhaps Vietnam Should Work On Creating Gov't Sponsored Political Dissent Instead Of Porn
from the just-saying dept
Vietnam has a long, long history of trying to censor the internet, though they usually claim it's to protect people from things like porn. In fact, just a few weeks ago, we noted that the filtering was apparently so effective that the government was creating its own online porn to encourage married couples to have sex with each other more often. Apparently, they claimed, married couples were having trouble figuring out how to fit tab A into slot B and needed some extra instruction. Of course, a new study suggests that perhaps the government would be better off creating fake political dissent online than porn. The tests of Vietnam's internet filters discovered that, despite what officials claim, very little online porn is actually blocked, but plenty of political dissent seems to have been wiped out.

Who is the bigger sugar daddy?
Vietnam's greatest public health problem at the moment isn't so much AIDS, as cheap kitchen stoves that blow up and turn children into Freddy Krueger. But we know that has to be napalm from American bombs, don't we? Vietnamese can spread propaganda, so Europeans can make their political posturing and blame everything on America.

Already Doing it
I guess you are. Taxes, out of control welfare and government handouts - the working taxpayer in this country has been taking it up the ass fordecades. Isn't that pornographic enough for you?
Government produced porn - not that's obscene.

Except the last sentence. I don't think the europeans are involved, and besides, they dont need excuses to rag on us. We work hard, thats reason enough for them :)
