DailyKOS Nuthouse Bans Nuts
This is just too good. DailyKOS, so-called home of the purest free speech goes on a nutcase purge. Oddly these guys have always had censorship since the trusted posters can low rate comments and make them disappear. Sort of like shouting down unpopular ideas. A practice commonly used on moderates and conservatives that post there.
At least most conservative sites I know allow liberals to post as long as it doesn't get abusive which is far more tolerant then left wing shout down practices.
Watching an entire forum fracture, adopt methods it purports to despise and turn on a good portion of its members is fascinating. It makes me think of this.
ISTANBUL, Turkey -- First one sheep jumped to its death. Then stunned Turkish shepherds, who had left the herd to graze while they had breakfast, watched as nearly 1,500 others followed, each leaping off the same cliff, Turkish media reported.See Wizbang here for more.In the end, 450 dead animals lay on top of one another in a billowy white pile, the Aksam newspaper said. Those who jumped later were saved as the pile got higher and the fall more cushioned, Aksam reported.
