Did you guys know that there’s a huge protest going on in Second Life? The avatar people or whatever are spending all their Linden dollars on virtual poster board and imaginary Sharpies, gathering on the steps of a picture of a building and waving the arms they had to actually buy with actual money to protest something Jon Stewart said about one of their own! Soon there could be virtual rioting in the pixel streets, and probably no real people will even notice. It’s all explained in this video (sort of), where a Second Life dude calls Stephen Colbert “Jon Stewart’s little brother”, and “dares” Stephen to enter the realm of Second Life to meet him avatar-face-to-avatar-face:

I mean, the audience of silent bears? The eagle avatar that probably set someone back 20 Linden dollars? I just don’t understand why Second Life people have to make it so easy for us to laugh at them.

    Comedy Central and their parent companies dont want free flow of information in places like Second Life. THEY want to be you source of ALL your information. They cannot regulate the kind of information people get in that type of enviroment. Therefore they are going to do whatever they can to supress peoples intrest in these type of enviroments. You should not invite them to Second Life. They will essentially infect it. Dont you get it?
