Zone1 Why are admins censoring socialists?

[Dogmaphobe]

But I LOVE having the zones

It's a rare woman, indeed, who doesn't love having her zones.

You lying hound.

Seconded. Taint detests honesty.

I post this to all of the admins. You continually close or move all of my threads into some obscure corner of the forum. Why? The title of my last thread is a question:

"Do Socialists Just Want To Take Your Stuff?

Why was my thread moved to the general discussion section from the Clean Debate section? Why are all of my threads on socialist topics closed or moved? What is the forum owner or the admins afraid of? Are you afraid of engaging socialists in a debate? Are you unable to have an open discussion on the issue? It seems, based on your actions, that you don't want anyone reading, or studying, the socialist perspective on the issues. Be courageous and honest and stop censoring socialist threads. If you want to ban socialists, just make it clear that socialists, and communists, aren't welcomed here in your forum and we will leave. You can discuss politics here in your echo chamber, free of being challenged or questioned by genuine leftists. Just ban Marxists and clearly inform people of this ban that way no one wastes their time and effort contributing to your forum.

This thread reminds me of a song by Social Distortion, "Ball and Chain!"

All of us have had our threads moved or closed for one reason or another. You are not being persecuted because you are a Commie.

Commies should find no rest in anything "American"

First you claim your life has been threatened by a poster who made a joke and now you whine about a post that didn't (sob sob ) end up where you wanted it to be. Get a freaking life you commie bstard.

OK so a video and a comment or opening statement alone aren't enough to spark the debate. I have to present ALL of the evidence for my position in written form on the first post, perhaps with a video or two in support of the written dissertation. Is that correct? Is that what will allow my threads to stick in the debate section, without being moved? Can I also add a video or two to the opening post with my written dissertation?

Videos dont work on message boards -- unless YOU take the time to TELL people in the Opost what's in them. Message board people are REAL BUSY people. They got trolling quotas and bedtimes and only a limited amount of time to watch vids in order to decide to discuss that particular thread.

So- if you USE one or more -- Add a descriptive summary of what IMPRESSED YOU in each in the Opost.

A lot of the paranoia you have about being censored is typical of ANY minority or political group. You can relax a bit at USMB. We have older members with 50 or more warnings and they are STILL HERE, And the rules are ONLY about encouraging discussion of topics and DISCOURAGING blatant personal feuds in threads.

So relax a bit. Not TOO much -- but get the hang of what USMB is about.

I've gotten two post deletions for off topic flaming, meanwhile I reported two posts for the same and they're still there

Something is wrong
