- jwilk 7y agoNote that this is the same person whose message was allegedly censored. The actual reason the message didn't reach the mailing list it that he's banned there.
- yasserarafat 7y agothis looks like more character assassination. you focus on the person and try to avoid talking about the real issues: Censorship, Palestine. there is no evidence this person did anything to be banned so if he is banned, it is only for asking important questions. looks a lot like the mysterious poison that killed Yasser Arafat https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasser_Arafat#Illness_and_death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasser_Arafat#Illness_and_deat...
- vanusa 7y agoI do notice it is a prime example of Godwin's law. Except it didn't involve that kind of rhetoric at all. Not until you brought it into the conversation.
- mjphilips 7y agobeing banned and being censored are much the same thing. it is all just dirty politics. this is the reason I don't join any large free software organization or any other large non-profit for that matter
