Oh how the pendulum of the mind swings. Alternating between sense and nonsense, rather than right and wrong. But we love the nonsense, and enjoy nothing more than putting lipstick on a pig and calling it art. If we don’t believe in freedom of expression for those we deride, then we don’t believe in it at all. The voice of the people! If it can’t achieve greatness, then it can always aspire to be a warning to others.
