The use of alerting to delete my posts is getting tedious
Has this board become so thin-skinned and over-run by the correctness police that when ANYONE COMPLAINS ABOUT anything, POSTS GET DELETED. Never an explanation to try and correct it, even for the future, just broad brush deletions.

Are we simply trying to sterilize DU, become the quiet left, voices squelched at every turn when the seagulls want to shut down threads or mob members to prevent alternative opinions? Union threads are attacked en masse, and when you voice a Pro-union, Pro-America position or open a thread celebrating same, the posts are deleted like bowling pins. EVERYTHING is an attack. And ya know what, that is unfair.


It used to be fun here. Now it's becoming apparent that only one voice is supported.


Thanks for reading. When you try and express this on the board, it gets deleted faster than you can say President Obama.

1. Maybe if you stop personally attacking people
the mods will stop deleting your posts.

2. If every post is considered a personal attack,,,,never mind. Losing proposition

my question was way more involved than that. I should have just written, why are all of my posts being deleted, but I guess simple answers make people happy.

Thanks anyway.

3. The moderators aren't deleting all of your posts
Just the ones they consider to be personal attacks.
