My deleted post from the moderated thread....apparently the OP didn't like it or something....
That's the disadvantage of the self moderated thread that the thread can keep only the post which he likes and delete the ones which differ from his opinion.
The only practical usefulness of a self-moderated thread is that it helps identify who is a control freak dick-head who knows they don't have arguments which can stand on their own. Most people who engage in it are pretty clearly control freak dick-heads anyway though.
The mainstream media and their various outlets are pretty much universally 'self-moderated'. As a rich person there is not much reason to buy a voice which can be degraded by uninvited entities challenging '
the narrative' with simple tools like facts, logic, common sense, etc. In the
Protocols this issue was recognized and the solution was a 'stamp tax' to basically price a competing 'narrative' out of the market.
It would probably be advisable to start an '(unmoderated)' variant of any thread which is started in self-moderated form akin to this thread. If one is tempted to respond on the censored thread, do so on the un-moderated one then on the moderated one just put in a link. Also a back-link so everyone (who is interested) could watch the dick-head guy as he deletes the links.
Of course the control-freak dick-head isn't going to be ashamed of censorship because they don't think like most people. They often have an '
more sophisticated' understanding of the universe and their place in it, and it is actually a right and a duty to censor things in order to help mold the world to a 'better' form. Fortunately they have a minority view so most people will laugh at their conceit, and especially when they understand it more.
