"Ban Ban MindBlo - Is your bereavement period over? Only 375 posts since you played your sympathy card to the Droids !!"

Consistent with the Maniban policies, Banni called for a vote of the Droids to have me expelled from his ethnically pure list...for two weeks. But I'll be back, and my mission will be to call them to task.

Banni did nothing whatsoever to a guy named "Gottfried" who was foaming about the "Jew-controlled media" in America.

My own post contained no obscenity, no racial slurs, and nothing else even conceivably violating the TOU of SI. Ah, but it "hurt the feelings" of Milo M., who, as you point out, continued to sling his insults and lies even as he was professing to be deeply in grief.

SI Administration excised all mention of this "hurt feelings thoughtcrime." Might have been useful in my defending myself, had there been a hearing of some sort. But in the Manni in Wonderland world of the Moderated Thoughts on AMD thread, it was "first the verdict, then the trial."

Lots of bad things happen to lots of us. Trust me. When bad things happen to normal people, we don't then jump on SI and sling insults while claiming to be so broken up we don't want our insults challenged.

The whole Silicon Investor structure is deeply sick. No wonder Go2Net and that outfit that bought them are in such trouble.
