Title: Do you like theymos and the censorship here, reddit, bitcoinorg and GitHub?

Sad to see Theymos became a buttcoiner.

I wonder how many Bitcoiners have not been banned.

Well, somebody needs to control the discussion....people are just too stupid to make informed, intelligent decisions regarding the processes and practices by which their money is regulated, right?  If it weren't for the covert oversite, everybody would be running around "willy-nilly" sending their money in any manner they liked....We can't be consumed by that type of behavior.

bitcointalk needs MORE censorship, they need to ban the professional trolls and shills

they should also ban the signature campaign posters who only post to get bitcoin

^^^ I agree....and the alt accounts, sock puppets, trust miners, thieves, scammers, shitcoiners, and those who try to post with non-grammatical syntax too, right?

Regardless of what you think of r/Bitcoin (I also think that censorship is prominent there and that both r/Bitcoin and r/BTC are complete echo chambers for their respective sides), Bitcointalk is pretty free and the moderators are very hands-off.

Actually, it's hilarious to see threads with >100 pages of posts for a thread from someone who can't speak English, even when the threads basically only have 2 answers.

Despite the crap trust system, opponents to SegWit are pretty freely vocal as well.

And I, sir, agree also.  These shitnecks need to be nuked into next Sunday.  IP bans for entire countries might solve the problem, but it's a good thing I'm not running this thing.

This is all an interesting economics experiment, i.e., what happens to a forum once people from all over the world are motivated to participate by getting paid to post.  Someone really ought to write a paper on ths.

Now as far as my opinion.  They do a pretty good job of deleting really shit posts.  Stuff like +1s, smiley faces, and all that jazz.  The problem then becomes that these shitposters start writing really long posts in broken English that all say basically the same stuff.  Over and over, ad infinitum.  It's like a goddamn filthy padded diaper parade here, and it makes threads SO uninteresting to read.  No humor, no nuance, and not even that informative.  The only fun thing to read is the trolling.  Sad.
