Censorship occurs as follows:
Rush must read it he then calls fox, the fox people will bring it to Roger Ailes attention and Roger must send a memo to the main stream media. Once the main stream picks it up, the powers at free republic and other members of the right wing conspiracy may then freely censor.
I know this is complicated but please spread the word over there at DU that this is a well thought out process.
*gasp*
HAAAAAAAAAA, haaaaaa, haaaaa!!
Oh, what a great, great thread.
Until then, this is FreeRepublic, and we don't like you.
No .. But awhile back my account here was suspended for 2~3 days because I was told that I added an inappropriate keyword .
You might try taking the focus off of you & and perhaps appreciate how this Republic came to be and what they went thru to give you the opportunity to pout this way .
Do you ever contemplate how tough things were for those before you ? Happy Thanksgiving ...
You are not being censored. Your First Ammendment rights are not being trampled. You have the perfect right to post on the web. No one here is stopping you. You are even free to start your own political web site. This is not censorship because FR is private and independent, and is not a government run or subsidized enterprise. It was founded and is run, funded with voluntary contributions, by an LLC established by Jim Robinson. There are rules and guidelines that are to be adhered to, without which FR would certainly descend into the kind of pointless vile spamming and profane gridlock of bickering we have all seen happen with other, less conscientiously moderated, political web sites and Usenet forums. The FreeRepublic is hardly a "party line" organ of propaganda; if you had spent any time here at all, you would have witnessed quite a number of spirited discussions, debates, arguments, and variety of opinion regarding just about every topic ever discussed by sentient beings. But, that does not include "disruption," - abuse, deliberate baiting and antagonism, spamming, hacking, use of profanity, ad hominem attacks, racial slurs, etc. etc. etc. None of these activities could be regarded as free political speech, unless your aim were to destroy the atmosphere of logical and healthy debate we so cherish here. Those who engage in aforesaid "disruption" of this website are the guilty parties in the issue of the violation of the First Ammendment guarantees of free, political speech.
Perhaps I should save this post and use it as a standard reply to the routine boilerplate accusations of censorship we see here periodically. What do you think, Jim?
