12. If it makes you feel any better

Wed Jul 26, 2017, 06:13 PM

Jul 2017

I got two deleted today (and some kind of DU warning email) for one thread in where I indirectly stated I was unhappy with certain things regarding how the DNC handled the last primary. This apparently was a bad thing.

I suppose I should have read the rules, but I was going on the assumption that the don't-say-bad-things was a between-primary-and-election rule, not a general admonition.

I get not saying bad things when we've picked a candidate -- circle the wagons and all that -- but after, don't really see the purpose. We can't improve if we don't realize our mistakes.

DU is a privately owned forum with rules. Reread the Terms of Service, link is at bottom of every page uppityperson Jul 2017 #4

I know the TOS Quanta Jul 2017 #6

Then you understand that a private forum having rules is not censorship. Have you tried uppityperson Jul 2017 #9

I point out DU rules, make a suggestion and you send me an insulting pm? uppityperson Jul 2017 #17

People really need to re-read that definition of censorship. This isn't censorship. Squinch Jul 2017 #5

I have a pretty good grasp of the English language. Quanta Jul 2017 #7

I agree with Squinch. cwydro Jul 2017 #11
