How about subcultures that are allergic to bad content?
I just really don’t see the value of keeping this post up other than as some sort of “look at how not censorshippy we are” signalling statement that was explicitly argued against on here. (“You have the downvote.” Well I’m gonna use it.)
How about subcultures that are allergic to bad content?
Those who are allergic to bad content would never wind up here. I would imagine they killed themselves long ago. Life is an endless procession of bad content.
How about subcultures that are allergic to bad content?
And who judges the badness of content? How many posts have been left to stand with their large negative karma as their badge of disapproval? And yet this post was obliterated from the website while carrying largish positive karma.
Is there possibly any value to a subculture being allergic to arbitrary censorship for reasons which can only be speculated upon, while pretending to be a moderately fair forum for those interested in avoiding human biases? What could be more promotional of human biases than giving some human the right to remove posts he doesn’t like without needing to explain himself publicly?
Might you explain why it’s bad? I agree that it’s bad, but I wonder if you think it’s bad for the same reasons I do. I’m trying to improve as a writer.
