ITāS JUST ONE BAD APPLE! Honestly, every time thereās a story about corruption, itās like thisā¦
Once youāve got a censorship apparatus, people will find all sorts of creative uses for it.
They are hoping that people donāt remember the saying is āone bad apple spoils the lotā.
Iām surprised people even mention it as it explains a lot about business, government and the police.
I guess they didnāt bring on a new censor to censor this story to avoid national embarrassment.
Odd. Boingboing certainly has no problem censoring comments that donāt agree with its leftist socialist progressive agenda, even when they amount to simple disagreement. Much hypocrisy here.
Which comment did you have censored in the 7 minutes between joining and this comment?
That is entirely untrue. There are plenty of folks on here who are far from āleftist socialist progressivesā. Know what theyāre not? Assholes. Which is why you can read every comment theyāve ever left on here, as you can those who have (respectfully) disagreed with them.
TL;DR: Haddaway and shite, man.
You sound like you must have acted like an asshole. Iāve left plenty of comments here disagreeing with basic premises of some of the editors that havenāt gotten deleted, and a few that have. The ones that have gotten deleted, by and large, when Iāve looked at them again, Iāve been glad they took it upon themselves to prevent me from making a fool out of myself by acting like an asshole in public. Maybe you should take a closer look at your deleted comments.
As the joke in China goes: He was actually arrested for not taking in enough in bribes to pay off the people above him.
So this person is being prosecuted for simply doing his job?
Such inefficiency should not go unpunished.
Awwwww butthurt idiot is butthurt.
Iām mean and rude and I disagree with the original post frequently. Iāve been commenting on here for years and years and the only time I got banned was when I (jokingly) made a dupe account of antinous to troll him about sock puppets and dupe accounts. I emailed him and was unbanned instantly.
The only comments that get censored are: off-topic, abusive, sexist, racist, discriminatory, etc. Thereās rules here and if you donāt like them you can simply take your pathetic hang-ups and fuck right off. The internet is not a democracy and we donāt have to listen to your stupid opinion here. Just keep complaining, shit-for-brainsā¦ itās going great so far.
bahahahahahaā¦ was this you @Falcor ? I commend the duration of the ban
If Antinous were still at the helm I wouldāve agreed with him. He deleted quite a few posts of mine because I disagreed with him or had an unpopular argument.
Thatās pretty much the way it is with any authoritarian tool. Regardless of original intentions, if it can be abused then it will be abused.
Nobodyās commenting on the fact that they are actually prosecuting him. Here heād be promoted to ānew anchorā.
I think he did a damn good job herding the trolls and firestorms that happened here during his time. Itās not like he and I always agreed either.
