It suggests that anyone who faintly disagrees with your point of view is wrong, evil, suspect, and should be clamped down. Now THAT'S Orwellian. Under your present view, I'm certain, 2+2=5. oh, and I think you spelled "fool" wrong. Unless you're Mr. T.

Aside from the ignorant worship thing, Fairey's poster is embarrassingly unoriginal, unattractive and destined to be buried in the archives of design museums. “You shall not make for yourself an idol”.

His work is something very new yet very classic that has quickly sparked off a whole range of copycats, and if that's not proof he's deserving of an awards I'm not sure what is!
