Watch your opinion on this get silenced in subtle ways. From gaslighting to thread nerfing to vote locking.... Ask why anyone would engage in those behaviours vs the merit of the arguments and the voice of the people.

The strings are revealing themselves so incredibly fast.

edit: my first flagged! silence is deafening ^_^. This is achieved by nerfing the thread from public view, then allow the truly caustic to alter the vote ratio in a way that makes opinion appear more balanced than it really is. Nice work, kleptomaniacs

And yet here their paragraph still is, unmoderated, on a front page story, 6 hours later. If you’re going to cry oppression, at least provide a single example.
Log off and go outside for a bit.
