>According to McLuhan, the French revolution and American revolution happened under the push of print whereas the preexistence of a strong oral culture in Britain prevented such an effect.[8]
Is he right?

Mcluhan was interesting in his takes because while most consider him a communication theorist he was more a philosopher of technology. His writing style was unapologetically obtuse and without explanation. He assumed you got the point, but he was also coming from a strong cultural and western cannon based analysis. He was apolitical in the sense that he thought he was simply pointing out the truth, which, of course, is an extraordinarily ideologically backed take to make. His theories provide a wonderful and refreshing lens of the world, but on their own they are simply tools that don’t build towards anything in particular.

blindpill?
I think that's what i've been up to for the past year
i feel great, i've gotta say
"don't know, don't care"
if something is "happening", I don't know, and I don't care
i'm looking forward...and a womens' boobies, and touching them too!
