Unlikely 2.0


   After the war the bullets were bored so we kept the game. With cynical smiles we put them on trial to place the blame. —Phil Ochs

Bin Badder
by Pete Hindle

Bin Badder takes the form of one of those annoying you-must-click-through programs, and is a political statement regarding the resurgence of terrorist activities in the west. I make no excuses for using a stupid scripting language for a minority platform - here, the political message directly mirrors the method of distribution. Because such a outré political message is unlikely to be received without knee-jerk response, and only a minority would ever consider the proposed link seriously. Therefore, limiting the choice of viewing to a minority makes little or no difference, as the piece is essentially didactic. And most people respond badly to being didactic-ed upon.
