"I still meet many people who do not understand how the Daily Mail is not just another tabloid, not just as bad as the rest of them, but instead something far more despicable and dangerous. It’s one of the most popular papers in Britain, and when we say, “Just ignore it – they’re just trying to get hits,” I shudder. We do not ignore evil – we challenge it and get angry about it. We make more people aware. Some people reading won’t have realised. And others can maybe point someone this way when they ask what they’re getting so worked up about."

I see Daily Mail crap RTed and reblogged a lot. The problem is that in amongst the racism, sexism, fear-mongering, jingoistic flag-waving bollocks and attacks on anyone who doesn’t fit within their tiny-minded world view is a lot of ‘innocent fluff’ that acts as link bait.

Imagine the KKK having a really successful kitten blog.

Try not to feed the monster.
