    Bennett has posted more than 300 times (I counted
    So that's sad. Not the posting, that you counted.
    and has been flagged for absolutely every one of them. While that percentage of flagging would be a good thing, in a rational world, it’s not only not affecting him, it has dramatically increased his output
    Two points:
    1. It's not just me, it's literally any even slight conservative viewpoint voiced, at all. I noticed a few that slipped past, and honestly I think it's just cuz the slopped forehead making most of flags doesn't have that great a reading comprehension. It has nothing to do with civility, nor the name on the post, it's literally just any even slightly conservative opinion. I am the majority of the conservative comments, I just think most people think the inmates have taken over the asylum and move on. It's a complete indictment of the readership here, and what I find funny is that it has NO effect on how many responses I get. Nonetheless it exposes liberals as hateful, gibbering, and rabid.
    2. No, being flagged doesn't make me post more. Masnick making dumbshit takes, and you guys posting really dumb comments like "Trump is a fascist!" (ironically while expressing totalitarian positions) and "Musk doesn't know how to run a company!!!" (about one of the most habitually successful people on the planet) just demands a response. .......really you retards are trolling me. No, seriously. Be less dumb and I'll comment less.
    I can no longer participate in any discussion wherein Bennett is to be found.
    How the FUCK do you think anyone would notice? You post anonymously, you walnut.
    I also counted the number rebuttals that he engendered while demonstrating his inability to recognize reality Bennett is anathema to rational discussion on TechDirt.
    Did you read the quality of those replies? No, I don't think you did. Most of them are dumbshit like "Said no one not hallucinating" and "whatever, fascist", or "Terrorist" both of which I find extra inane. They certainly are not rebuttals. Fuck, I hesitate to call them sentient. Like I don't think they pass the Turing test, and we have software that actually does, now. Suffice to say I think I'm smarter than you. Basically all of you, actually. So yeah, when you guys stop saying stupid shit (including Masnick) I'll quit commenting. Stop trolling me
    contributing member of society.
    Traditionally this term is applied to someone who is a taxpayer, rather living on the public dole....not to brag but chances are very good I make more money than you. No, I don't care what alternate definition of "contributing" you have, I don't care about your shitty opinion.

    Honestly, I would prefer you not ask for "proof" on the most inane, commonly known stuff and quibble with it in the least intelligible way possible, like claiming Bari Weiss was not a credible source cuz she was a dude who worked at the NY Post. (which no, was not a joke) If you are going to argue, be smart about it and worth my time. Fuck, if you are gonna ad hominem, which is sad, at least get your facts straight.

    I mean, the little arsehole uses gendered, homophobic and transphobic slurs with abandon,
    Excuse me, not only is this dumb, it's lying. "Gendered" only rarely (an awful lot of insults are gendered). In fact, way less than yourself, who started off with the emasculating BDSM shit, then cackled like an old retired whore when I pointed out the hypocrisy of it (I was not particularly offended, I just thought the route of insult said a lot about you). Basically all my gendered insults have been reserved for you, partly cuz of the BDSM shit partly cuz your insults have such an inane nasty quality that I see predominantly exhibited by women, and I was hoping you would get the hint, you dumbitch. (one "b", one word, cuz I said so)
    homophobic and transphobic slurs
    No, never, not once actually. I may have views you disagree with (primarily that biological men should not compete in women's sports and no you can't make someone participate in a gay wedding) -- those views do not make me "transphobic" btw and you cannot make me change nor hide my view by claiming they do. But I have never made a homophobic or transphobic slur and you are lying if you claim I have. I am principled libertarian and fully believe everyone should be treated as purple blobs, particularly on the internet. I look at YOUR gendered (and emasculating diminutives) and think it makes you a poor quality of human who deserves to die alone with her cats. Now kinda STFU you dumbitch.

    moderation is free speech
    It's not, and whoever came up with that line is a retard. (Yeah, it's Masnick)
    from calling it censorship
    Assuming it's removing content, it absolutely is censorship.
    just because you don’t agree with it.
    Whether I agree with it or not has nothing to do with it. There certainly is censorship I agree with. How did you get this dumb?

    I mean, he thinks a physical threat is a joke I don’t get…
    Pretty sure you misunderstood something.

    What if the speech is true, tho’?
    If the speech is true it's not libel to start with, dumbass.

    prove coercion or stfu plz
    "Don't ban who we say, we swat team everyone at 2 am, shoot your dog, scare your kids for not removing kiddie porn quiiiiiite fast enough" See that's funny, cuz I'm sure you'll call that hyperbole but the FBI does that to politically disfavored people alllllll the time, actually. Even when the person in question is offering to surrender. Even when they're later found innocent. It's call "process is punishment". Seriously tho, coercion is assumed. Get fucked.

    You constantly disregard somebody’s comment, without providing a single factual reason of why it should be disregarded.
    He knows WHY what he said was bullshit, so it hardly merited my explaining. he actually gave his political opinion and picked a political fight over it, making it harder to do his job and in violation of all jopurnalistic standards. Thanks for playing, get fucked.

    He doesn’t owe you shit.
    Of course he does. Feel productive now? Not only that, he should be required, by law, to write it on a cake.

    I hope you can now appreciate how frustrating you are to deal with around here.
    You mean when you ask me for "proof" of a thing that is a matter of the national conversation and should be common knowledge to anyone discussing the topic? Which when provided such evidence you will then quibble and ad hominem only to admit a few comments late that you WERE aware of the basic fact? Example: You claimed to be unaware and tried to make me prove that Twitter was banning people over "misgendering". So no, I don't think I can "appreciate", you stupid, disengenuous fucktard.

    If you think “far left wing speech police” isn't an actual thing you're even dumber than I think you are....which probably isn't possible.

    He's being sarcastic, because no, it isn't any different. Well actually, correction, it is very different than the usual cancel culture incident....in that was an employer firing someone directly for an inappropriate thing they did. Most cancel culture incidents are pressure campaigns based on nothing of actual import.

    But still propaganda.
    It's all propaganda. It's a political press release. Bragging about whatever initiative they think is important. That doesn't mean it's appropriate to start an argument with the politician about it. Very much not a journalists job. And he was fired for it. Nothing else you said was valid nor had any relevance.
    Boy, you’ll jump through any kind of hoop to disagree with TD, huh?
    Just when they say something really dumb, which is often, actually. I don't often post anything on the posts complaining about police violating 4th amendment and the like, cuz I agree. This was dumb, going to say so. Really fucking dumb, actually.

    You guys know that it's now verified Biden's whole family took money from China, right? And that Clinton colluded with Russia, Trump didn't. Both 100% confirmed. And you're making ruble jokes for some reason?

    Journalism 101: When someone says it’s raining and someone else says it’s sunny, your job isn’t to report both sides⁠—it’s to look out the fucking window and see who’s right.
    Not even vaguely what occurred.

    I am and was aware, still a dumb political take that has nothing to do with tech.

    Of course he does. He mad a claim (a dumb, wrong one) and refuses to support it (obnoxious when it should be easily verifiable) or withdraw his claim.

    Yeah, OK, what about when you edit the email,

    ....only taking out the parts you don't like? You ow me this list of "all reports" suggesting all those meetings weren't about "removing content", Masnick.
