Digg is retarded

I was going to save the Tracy Morgan SNL video for the links of the day feature, but I have unwittingly started a controversy on the comments page on digg that reflects pretty accurately how idiotic Internet culture can be. Right now, my comment is the top-ranked comment for the feature. The entirety of my comment was the punchline "Bitch is the new black, but black is the new president, bitch," which I posted because I thought it was the most relevant line from the routine that was not mentioned in the description. Yet, I get lambasted for being a spoiler, which leads me to get "burried." This leads to a brain lesion-inducing debate on what should be defined as a spoiler, and what should be the purpose of digg's comments (I may be the only non-virgin involved in this debate).

This is the side of new media that causes MSM to lambaste it so viciously. Any defense of Web 2.0 has to reconcile itself with comments sections apparently written by Russian sweatshop workers paid $3 a day to subvert American intelligence. I think they let the monkeys on typewriters leave comments on YouTube.
