Update:
The New York Post wrote a sickeningly uneducated article today, click
here for the scan. Another fucking BULLSHIT article. They did NOT
try to contact me. I didn't receive ANY e-mail whatsoever. More one sided
propaganda.
Some
quick facts: 1. I
did not make the video. 2. I
did not kill the cat. 3. It
was broadcast on HBO before and was sent in by a reader. 4.
We see far
worse in movies and on TV nightly and no one complains. 5.
PETA has FAR worse video clips on their website. 6.
Americans are stupid.
The world
is a fucked up, horrible and beautiful place. If there is one thing I
have to do it is laugh at how worked up certain people and the media got
over this stupid video clip.
As the last
three days progressed the articles on the subject got more and more slanted,
until they started to look like something like this:
EVIL
JEWISH WEBMASTER KILLS KITTEN FOR SATANIC RITUAL THEN BURNS DOWN CHURCH
AND BEATS THIRTY-SEVEN NEWBORNS TO DEATH WHILE PISSING ON THE AMERICAN
FLAG!
Considering
that the clip in question was broadcast YEARS ago on HBO (To Love Or Kill:
Man Vs. Animal) really makes me wonder what other "controversial"
things I can do when I post things taken out of its natural context.
PBS, CNBC,
National Geographic Explorer and many other prime time networks have broadcast
the exact same thing, as recently as two days ago. I wonder how much hate
mail they got?
The fact
of the matter is people have been killing animals for sustenance and survival
since the beginning of time. Does survival make it right though, you may
ask? I don't know, though it's hard to take the moral high ground and
condemn people when their survival is at stake. What I do know is that
with all of our technology we kill a lot more animals than necessary,
if it is necessary at all.
Denis
Leary once said that "we seem to only want to protect the cute animals,"
and he couldn't have been more right. The
human response depends on the animal in question being killed.
When a SATANIC
SHOCK-PORN WEBSITE (that would be Stile Project, right?) decides to post
a video clip of an animal being murdered in cold blood in between pictures
of hardcore fornication and Japanese people eating each others feces,
all of a sudden it is CONTROVERSIAL.
Well fuck
me! Hey mom, I made the 11:00 news!
Right about
now Japanese people are waking up, logging onto the Internet and reading
something that looks like this, cursing me to hell and then going
out to work and pretending that their people didn't rape and murder 300,000+
people in Nanking
in WWII. I wonder how my name translates into Japanese, anyhow? "Pale
Hook Nose Who Kills Babies."
When news
organizations get their news from other news organizations, eventually
you get a story that resembles textual broken telephone. Without actually
doing any research on the subject they assume that the article in question
is factual and then reprint it with their own "modifications."
These modifications
are usually omitting facts and distorting the truth for an entertaining
read.
Accountability
in journalism? Who ever heard of such a ridiculous idea!
Anyhow, the
point I am trying to make is that many "respectable" news organizations
from all over the world carried a story about this cat eating video, and
only because it was a porn site posting a video of a cute cuddly
animal being made into a meal. They printed the story as if it was me
who made the video out of sadistic intent, and if it was any type of institutional
educational related website no one would have said a word.
I've posted
videos of cows and boars being slaughtered for consumption and didn't
hear a fucking peep. Remember that scene in Apocalypse Now where the bull
gets it's head chopped off? Where's PETA demonstrating it's reopening
in the theatres this month? Sounds like a good example of the depiction
of animal cruelty for commercial gain, which as you now know, is illegal.
Here are
links to the news articles if you care: Wired,
USA
Today, Ananova,
The
Register and others. I couldn't fucking read whatever language they
are in and my head is going to explode if I hear any more about this topic.
Many people
wrote me some really interesting and sincere e-mails, and believe it or
not I read them all. Some great points were made about hypocrisy and turning
a blind eye to the issues at hand. I just want to thank those of you that
have stood up for me and took the time to e-mail various media outlets
and organizations in my defense.
I
found this e-mail to The Register particularly amusing.
Anyhow, let
us never speak of this again.
