Modified meme

[ckd]

If you truly believe that "you are either with us or against us, and to be with us you must publicly profess your agreement" is a sentiment that is no more useful as part of an LJ meme than it is when the Bush Administration uses it, post this in your journal.

If you don't, you're a horrible evil person.

I did go back and review it, and came to the conclusion I didn't read it as carefully as I should have yesterday. I suppose because I do agree with the contention so strongly, it colored my judgement on how it was phrased.

I appreciated the inclusion of the original in your comment. I hadn't seen it and was pleased to see it myself and have my own reaction. Looking at it was useful for me. It made me realise that I had become a "true believer" who was willing to say so. So I did. I really get the ojection to people telling you what to do. I just didn't have that reaction. I enjoyed what I've been calling the rebutal version. I agree with that too, I just don't think it applies here for me.
