The Man Keeps ME Down
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Recently America Online has stepped up their advertising
|
|
campaign by doing more TV ads with well known celebrities plugging
|
|
their service. The most recent I caught had Emmanuel Lewis on it
|
|
telling about AOL and why he uses it. His last few lines were the
|
|
most disgusting bullshit that has crossed my ears in some time.
|
|
|
|
"..without the man keeping me down"
|
|
|
|
The way this little black boy sits on screen and talks about
|
|
"the man" sickens me in two ways. First, you have a hollywood figure
|
|
who has led a very rich and simplistic life. His 'eternal youth' has
|
|
put him into many positions that payed him more than small countries
|
|
yet he acts like he has been harassed by "the man". What does he mean?
|
|
Many black people refer to police officers as "the man", while others
|
|
refer to white men (stereotypical white yuppie) as "the man". A
|
|
small few refer to the government by the same term. With little
|
|
Lewis sitting up there talking about "the man" with his past lifestyle,
|
|
and sheltered eyes, I have to wonder who he is bitching at. Which
|
|
of the above mentioned entities has adversely affected his life?
|
|
His concern about being watched gives the impression that
|
|
America Online wants to ensure your privacy. It also gives the impression
|
|
that they want to give you individual freedom to do what you want,
|
|
and say what you want. This couldn't be farther from the truth.
|
|
America Online takes more than enough steps to monitor your online
|
|
activity, censor what you say, and limit your privacy and freedom.
|
|
They monitor their user's messages, moderate public and private chat
|
|
in the forums, and are the first to assist police or federal officers
|
|
in monitoring private mail. America Online employees have a list of
|
|
'offensive words' they ban including bondage, douche, genitalia,
|
|
horny, masturbation, submissive, whips & chains. In chat rooms, words
|
|
such as: boys, cross dressing, dom, erotic, girls, insults, kinky,
|
|
lingerie, lust, shaved, teens, or underwear, are considered vulgar.
|
|
(Those words are taken directly from one of the 'proprietary' Terms
|
|
of Service that moderators keep at their fingertips.)
|
|
|
|
The thought of a rich pampered black kid attempting to say
|
|
that "the man" has kept him down, and that a fascist, money-hungry
|
|
online service is there to help you insults me in so many ways.
|
|
America Online is a leech in the 'net' community and has only
|
|
worried about their own resources over the years. Buying out a
|
|
backbone of the internet, and only contributing naive users to
|
|
the internet is not a benefit. Choosing a black kid from hollywood
|
|
is a slap in the face to the American population.
|
|
On top of the irony of who is advertising what, you have
|
|
to consider how hypocritical AOL is in advertising the way they do.
|
|
Not only do they insult "the man" as well as insult the intelligence
|
|
of millions of Americans, they insult the rest of the population
|
|
because of the racial implications. They are stereotyping one group
|
|
of people (no matter who it is Lewis is talking about) into a
|
|
single group, and then trying to say that the same group is keeping
|
|
him down. One black kid blaming a bunch of white people for
|
|
keeping him down. Yeah, right.
|
|
|
|
America Online is not the family network they claim to be.
|
|
They are a money hungry big brother network worried about feeding
|
|
their bank accounts rather than worrying about their user's privacy.
|
|
Write to them complaining about their ways. Post this file on any
|
|
related newsgroups, and mail this to as many of the admins as you
|
|
can.
