I was thinking the other day about what happens when someone goes into the streets to protest something. Generally, nothing happens. Well, not since 1968. Politically speaking, there's little difference between a flash mob and an organized political rally.
Now, we're using the Internet to show our political stripes. Lately, on Facebook, there have been faceoffs such as "can this inanimate object get more fans than X-Y-or-Z?"
They're generally funny, and also have little political clout. Stephen Harper isn't going to really pay attention to them. Well, maybe.Perhaps the political clout is in the fact that so many people are joining these groups, because they're funny.
If these groups get enough people joining them, perhaps mainstream media will have to report on it. I can hear it now, "On popular social network, Facebook, of which millions of Canadians are members of, an onion ring is more popular than Prime Minister Stephen Harper." It would be great.
Anyway, we'll see what happens with these types of groups. In the meantime, it seems as though they're more popular than the actual political parties here in Canada.
