  The "spam filter" was a moderator.  And if this forum is like most of the others, it's against the rules to speak about moderator actions.  So don't expect me to go there.

FYI, you can speak (pro or con) about moderator actions here as much as you like, provided you don’t run afoul of the rules in doing so. 

There’s a wee button in the upper left quadrant of your screen that says ‘Rules’. Give it a poke, there’s a good lad.

  As far as any forum is concerned, to them the whole problem with my truth is that I can defend it.  You could have a forum with 100 of the absolute top smartest people on the planet on it and I could still defend it.  Far beyond their ability to disagree.  That is if any of them were foolish enough to disagree.

Cool. So, are you going to tell us what it is, or…? Is part of the fun leaving us hanging in suspense?

  Tell you what.  You get a moderator here to tell me that it is ok for me to tell you the name of a forum where the truth can be spoken.  At least to a greater degree than any other I have found.  I will tell you what it is.  That is if you will go there, join it and engage in conversation with me there.  You will find out things you would probably prefer not knowing.

I am pretty sure there is no rule against naming another forum.  In fact it happens here now and then.

Posting a link is another thing.  Don't do it.

And stop with your passive-aggressive bullshit and your whining.  It's not amusing, interesting, or worth the eyestrain.  Ya big baby.

Go for it Skippy - I'm an admin...name this spectacular forum.

We’re fresh out of moderators, but I’m an administrator. You have my permission to post the name of that forum (you just can’t post a link for it).

Or you have nothing and are simply full of shit and no rules need be changed or bent  to accommodate your childish whining

  Sure, I might be able to stand out on a street corner and speak the truth.  But no doubt I would end up getting attacked, possibly killed, by one of the brainwashed minions of our government.  I have no power.  The media has all the power.  In taking on freedom of speech in that regard would be suicidal.  People should have a right to kill themselves.  But I reject freedom of being assaulted and possibly murdered.  Even our government isn't above murdering people.  Just like the Mafia might do.

Most of the forum rules are reasonable, or at least started out that way. There are bots and spammers who show up here who try to sell car insurance, or who try to sell their religion in the same way that one sells car insurance. Through annoying blasts of advertising. 

I agree with what you said earlier, about the government and the corporate media being in lock step because they are in fact the same. Their propaganda and their control of speech is extremely effective. Recently YouTube and Twitter have been taking people off line if they dare to question the current party line on Ukraine. (Putin is Hitler, the US did nothing wrong, don't pay attention to all the Nazis in Ukraine because we love them now.) 

There are also unwritten rules on this forum about how one behaves oneself. Personal insults are only OK when directed at certain types of people. You could get along here if you want, and make the political points that you want, if you frame them according to these unwritten rules. It's more about how you present yourself than the content of what you say. 

It has often seemed to me that a lot of people here are very full of anger and frustration, and when a new person shows up who doesn't fit the approved forum mould, this person gives them license to vent the rage they've been storing up. So at the moment, you're it. 

But there is a lot in the world to be angry and frustrated about, so I suppose we all deal with that in different ways.


  I have been banned from other forums for posting "spam."  (among other stupid reasons)  I wasn't trying to sell anything.  Spam is just one of the labels they put on truth.  As for youtube, I could show you an interesting video that they removed from there because of harassment or bullying.  But neither was going on in the video.  I might post it here.  Whenever it isn't against the rules for me to do anymore.
