Gaddafi really is a 1st class douche, but even he will eventually be undone by the internet. The pen was mightier than the sword and now that pen has been upgraded to twitter. It looks like technology is slowly destroying fascism around the world, who'da thunk it? Maybe this 'global culture' ain't such a bad thing after all?

That was mostly likely "Oops" effect, something I have noted before as a form of internal defiance.
Quote:

The plans and schemes of tyrants are broken by many things. They shatter against cliffs of heroic struggle. They rupture on reefs of open resistance. And they are slowly eroded, bit by little bit, on the very beaches where they measure triumph, by countless grains of sand. By the stubborn little decencies of humble little men.
-David Drake, In The Heart of Darkness
