Is it just me? Or are others seeing more locked threads and getting more hides

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Hassin Bin Sober (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

here in the GD: Primaries forum?

I dunno. It just seems like there's a concerted effort to stifle expression right now.

Maybe it is time for Skinner to "call it" if that is what truly is going on.

more than their candidate has. Hypocritical behavior from a group that constantly espouse freedom of speech and a level playing field if you ask me.

Skinner doesn't get to call elections. That's why we have a Democratic Convention

A claim was made that it wasn't true and another was made that he had actually had endorsed Hillary, which I don't believe is factual ( he did in 2008). I posted a radio interview of RFK Jr interviewing Bernie. Nothing in the posting seemed rude or offensive, unless I missed it.
