The Revolution Will Not Be an Internet Mème

You will not be able to watch it on uStream. The Revolution will not show you pictures of Charlie Sheen losing his shit. There will be no trollin’ or FAIL, the Revolution will not come in the form of a Trojan or a Wyrm. There will be no timelapse or flashmob, the Revolution will be an Internet mème. Now make your own. Gil Scott-Heron, 1949-2011. [via Petit Petit Gamin] posted on May 17, 2011 at 8:12pm EDT
