Sevenload Thinks Americans Are Uneducated Morons
Apparently someone read my nasty post from yesterday morning about Sevenload because they stopped by and left this comment last night. Now that I am actually awake and have re-read the comment, I stand by my first post. Apparently if we don't agree with them about Guantanamo Bay we are uneducated people. That's a pretty heft portion of the U.S. Population.
Dear shadowscope,
we understand your concern that uneducated people might feel infuriated by what happened at Guantanamo. Let me assure you, though, that we do not feel we have a stance against America. We feel it is our duty to offer an unbiased access to topics that spring up in our community. In the wake of the Saddam execution video, the topic became part of the extended discussion on our site. We created a special to allow users to comment on both sides of the story. no more and no less than that. We only believe in a citizen's web of open discussion. However, we have withdrawn the special as this discussion has now passed it's prime and we are reflecting on a balanced way to lead that discussion. We cordially invite you to join in!
At least they had the nuts to stop by and comment. That's more than I can say for a lot of people. They have also taken down the section that I was referring to. I will stop by the site this afternoon and give it a proper review and at least change the title of the prior post. I don't need to stop by and look at anything, the comment they left tells me everything that I need to know. Apparently Sevenload has decided to take a political stance against the United States and thinks that bloggers like this are uneducated and not able to make decisions for ourselves unlike their surrender monkey selves, but then I guess we all have our opinions and like any other consumer, it is buyer beware. I vote with my feet, and my feet are carrying me back to Youtube
I see that Dave Berube also received the same comment from Sevenload that I did last night.

At least they appear to give a crap about what people think of them. Rare in the internet world.
Those were my thoughts until I actually read the comment and realized that they are basically calling me a dumbass. That's one way to build traffic I suppose.
Hey there, I'm not sure what that newsforyourinfomation.blogspot.com blog is, but it seems to have replicated my post on my blog. I've actually just written another post about Sevenload at http://www.daveberube.com/blog/ .
You should check it out, thanks for thinking on my terms :)

It looks like that other site is a content thief designed to get hits on their adsense ads. There are only about seven posts up there right now. I have removed links to that site. Thanks for pointing it out to me as well as your update.
It isn't good to judge people by their race, although I don't think this person was really saying that Americans are uneducated, funny though maybe he was and I just read it wrong lol.
