Censoring of topics (Page 3): If you don't understand how things work, you see everything as magic, or worse, as a conspiracy.

Try to fine something regardless!

My recent photo of a chemtrail was removed from this section: just as Google/Youtube did to their users who submitted thousands of videos of chemtrails that were available for a number of years. It began when they added a notification that contrails were what you were seeing. The came the total censoring. I never thought that UHH would sensor any thing other than that which is harmful.

Did you go to the link in the first reply to your post? According to the article, chemtrails have never been proven to exist. Aluminum has never been linked to Autism. UHH sends political discussions (which can get ugly) and anything that might provoke a discussion of a conspiracy theory to the Attic. Your post is still there. It can be seen by anyone who is registered with UHH but not by the public. You may not consider chemtrails to be a conspiracy theory, but apparently Admin does. I'm merely providing an explanation for what happened. I'm not taking sides. I don't know anything about this subject.

What’s a chemtrail?

Did you just give yourself a thumbs up. The height of conceit.

A while back a fellow with Multiple Sclerosis was told by his doctor to avoid any deodorant containing aluminum. MS and autism are brain sicknesses.

If a forum (owner/moderator) is forced to allow absolutely anything, for ANY subject or reason
hasn't he lost his rights to ownership and to decide what is to be displayed?

Similarly for a business that wants to maintain a "clean-cut" image, ie. NO mustaches or beards.
You want the job? Shave it off.
They should not be allowed to have those requirements?????
Infringing on the rights of the "worker"?
What about infringing on the rights of the company to maintain a particular image????

Or is that not allowed.........

I agree with this, so long as the parameters for restricting content are made clear up front and so long as there is no bias, i.e. liberals can post their opinions but not conservatives.

I guess I’ve got too much time on my hands but I’ve been following this thread and it seems to be “much ado about nothing”. According to the OP, the original post was moved from “Upcoming Topics” to “The Attic” which apparently admin felt was the appropriate section for the post. There’s no censorship involved.

NO, according to the OP's ORIGINAL POST he thought it was REMOVED (ie. DELETED)!

Everyone told him it was not deleted but moved to the ATTIC.

If he meant MOVED, he should have used that word and not used REMOVED.

Then again, reading comprehension is the other half of effective communication.........

You’re right and I agree. This was my error. I made the mistake of typing “moved” instead of “removed” in my comment on his post.

Nope, he means chemtrails. Not a typo.

Aren't chemtrails really con-trails?
