Left censorship | Print |  E-mail
By James Secor   

The left, the freedom fighters, the people who yell and shout and raise all kinds of hell about censorship and the right to speak out, the people at Mother Jones Magazine. . .they engage in the same trashy censorship, the same repression of expression the gov't they so abhor engages in. I wrote a comment to a beautifully self-righteous China bashing article asking where the fine heroes of the1968 Olympics were in this hour of need, the hour of need being slam China's Olympics. But I ask you. . .where are they now and what have they done since raising their fists in solidarity and being punished for it? (I applauded them then.) They've been silent about racism in America ever since. They've fought no battle. They are still silent. And this woman writer wants to know where their voices are now? Ain't she aware of the racism and human rights violations of her own country, both at home and abroad? Ain't she aware that--no racism here--the pot calling the kettle black is hypocrasy and picayune self-righteous blather? As I said in my comment: Rev. Wright was right. . .God DAMN America.

But. . .I was not allowed to post my comment. This is the reason why, direct from Mother Jones to me and now to you: "Too many comments have been submitted from you in a short period of time."

What kind of utter trash is this?! Short period? Two days ago? I see people posting every damn day for weeks, months at a time! Same names over and over again. Some of 'em taking 2 posts to get all of their hot air out.

No. Let's get down to what's troubling Momma Jonesie: my posts have have been about how shallow their reporting is and how off-centre and how hypocritical and how they are engaging in China bashing. And they don't like it. Mother Jones is jumping on the bandwagon; it is no longer an alternative to insane thinking. Mother Jones is interested in keeping the status quo, the status quo of the brainless Left that jumps at anything without giving it a bit of rational thought. Mother Jones isn't interested in being right or being the alternative to the mainstream; Mother Jones is interested in being the mainstream.

So, here it is folks, the question not nobody not nohow is not asking: What's really going on behind all of this Olympic bullshit the US and its allies-of-the-moment are handing out? What dog is being wagged? From what is our attention being diverted?

On second thought, don't ask this question. You'll get into trouble. Best you just forget it, yeah?

You might end up with this note: Too many comments have been submitted from you in a short period of time.

Chill, bro....
Hey Amigo, I happen know that error as it's caused by Movable Type (a type of CMS which MoJo is likely using) and has nothing to do with anyone censoring you. You'd be better off bringing it to their attention and mentioning when it happened and whether or not you were actually sending loads of comments quickly or if it was out of the blue. I happen to know the only censorship they do is for profanity...
