Miss Piggy: if they take what I say seriously, they’ve got a real big problem

Anyone remember Fox Business accusing the Muppets for being communist?

We’re teaching our kids class warfare. Where are we, Communist China?

When this came to my attention I already said that Fox taking the Muppets serious was beyond me. It’s why I found the satire response from Conan so fitting to this situation.

But now Miss Piggy from the Muppets has chipped in on the accusations from Fox Business:

Climate Denial and Manufacturing Legitimacy

The scientific discussion has long since moved on from whether we are causing the increase in our planets temperature to fine tuning what effects this will have. We know it is happening, we are responsible for it and we are now in the process of finding out that we have been underestimating it.

Yet, the so-called sceptics have managed to delay action, very effectively spreading misinformation. A considerable amount of misinformation comes from the blogosphere, where familiar and long-debunked claims about climate change are repeated time and time again.

Protest SOPA and the PROTECT IP Act

The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and PROTECT IP Act (PIPA) would allow the US government to block any of us from accessing sites if they allegedly contain copyright infringing material.

Big sites like YouTube, Facebook or even small start-ups can be shut down by a company accusing them of publishing copyrighted material.

No court, no judge, nobody checking if someone actually did something wrong.
