It is time for a post on censorship
Two recent posts from by Anonymint were deleted from the
Economic Devastation thread by moderators. This is a very unpleasant first. Until now this thread has been a contentious but censorship free back and forth about economics.
These deleted post appear to be collateral damage. Yesterday there were several (at least 4) repetitive posts in the altcoin forum promoting Ethereum. TPTB_need_war took a contrarian position and posted counterarguments against Ethereum in all of them.
I read these posts which do not interest me as I own no Ethereum. They contain typical Anonymint confrontation but are overall pretty tame. I certainly saw nothing that would explain or justify widespread censorship and mass deletion of posts. I cannot help but wonder if there was a financial interest behind this. It is odd and represents a break from an otherwise laudable and hands off moderation policy.
I am a guest here on this forum. I do not pay the bills or expect to make the rules. I also appreciate this free space to discuss Bitcoin. However, I would like to make it known that I would strongly prefer a more hands off and censorship free approach be applied in the future if not forum wide then at least in the
Economic Devastation thread.
