I stated fact. This is the way it is over there at LF. It's a free country and this is their "thing". That so called libertarian forum is 50% libertarian and 50% Jew/Israel bashing. This is fact. Goodbye.

I'm not sure I'd disagree with you.

(and some of us aren't exactly thrilled with that)

But the fact is, the website is established on libertarian principles, and therefore makes a sincere effort not to censor posts at all, and rarely if ever for content which does not pass with the approval of thought filters.

Such content is rebutted rather than sanitized. Yeah, it takes a little more effort to rebutt rather than hide, but the site's founder has enough confidence in the value of liberty, to know that putrid and unsound ideas are easily rebutted (and rebutted soundly) by anyone willing to put forth the effort.

If ideas are sound, they withstand challenges, and are upheld on their own merits. They don't need a panel of folks to protect people from themselves.

"It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself."

Based on what I saw, it's also 50% Confederate wannabes. Wait, that's 150%. Well, you know what I mean.
