Opinion: If you have a different opinion that is cool.

Boy, that John C. Mayer really stepped in it, didn't he. Or did he. What got me is okay, he may have really worded things badly and been totally politcally incorrect, but was there any malice in anything he said? No. Was there hate directed back toward him for just a bunch a silly crap he said? Yes. John C. Mayer was not the bad guy. But I have to wonder about some of the people writing hate blogs and spewing their hate over on twitter, what is wrong with these people? Seriously.

Then people like me were trying to point out that John C. Mayer is not a hater and then the stupid fuck gives an idiot apology. Look celebs. Don't ever give an apology. Right, wrong, shades of gray, it does not matter. The elite media is to the apology what the Piranha is to the Amazon. Course they want you to go swimming in that river of self-doubt but only so they can eat you alive.

Should he have made fun of what he said. Yes. Should he have made fun of the haters attacking him. Damned straight. Should he have apologized to people who actually know him. Maybe. Should he have apologized to people spewing hate toward him. No.

All of us who do websites and do blogs have got to look at the hate directed at Mayer and wonder how we can create content and entertain without risking the same hate directed back at us. We have to push the knife to be cutting edge. We have to turn issues upside down so we don't just sound and look like everyone else. But when we do separate ourselves out from the clones the media has created, will we find success or just find ourselves buried in ridicule and hate.

At different times I've had my share of people hating me and I've pretty much shrugged it off but the internet is not nearly as friendly today as it was in the past. There have always been flame wars but they were always pretty much good natured. As the elite media has become such a part of the internet and they've been pushing social media; the internet has become way less social and a hell of a lot more judgemental.
