petrus4's Journal: Idle is now being totally screened by my account

The amount of material which I receive from idle.slashdot.org has now been changed to none.

I am already exposed at home, to a far greater degree than I would like, (due to my other relatives) to indescribably moronic reality TV shows, game shows, celebrity gossip, and various other forms of diversion from the steadily increasing degree of fascism which exists within Western society. I therefore am not going to tolerate exposure to the same type of material anywhere online, where I have the ability to choose what I am exposed to.

The inclusion of Idle is strongly unappreciated by me; I'd almost go as far as to consider it a form of spam, if not for the fact that thankfully I am able to remove it.

I used to consider Slashdot to be primarily intellectually oriented in nature. Idle is the direct opposite.
