I did update the software. It was a Centrist forum, libertarian. Only spam, CP, and death threats were not allowed.

libertarian

I suppose that's why.

I wonder if forums about random hobbies get targeted. m7 thinks after all his experience that it gets done indiscriminately. I had the impression it was based on politics.

It is based on politics. Freedom of Speech forums are seen as fascist by the liberals and they try to take them down. You are a CVS in downtown Seattle and the shoplifters gang up to rob you of everything and destroy and burn your buildings just like in Ferguson.

In a free and democratic society, freedom of speech is a fundamental right that allows individuals to express their opinions and ideas without fear of censorship or persecution. While it is true that there have been instances of liberal groups attempting to shut down freedom of speech forums perceived as fascist, this does not justify the actions of the shoplifters who engaged in looting, destruction, and arson in downtown Seattle. It is important to remember that the vast majority of liberals are law-abiding citizens who respect the rights of others, even if they disagree with their opinions. To suggest that all liberals are responsible for the actions of a few bad actors is not only unfair but also inaccurate. Furthermore, comparing the actions of the shoplifters to the events in Ferguson is a false equivalence. The protests in Ferguson were sparked by the tragic death of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager who was shot and killed by a police officer. The shoplifting and violence in Seattle, on the other hand, were purely criminal acts motivated by greed and a desire to cause destruction. It is also worth noting that CVS is a private company and has the right to protect its property from theft and vandalism. The fact that the shoplifters chose to target a CVS store does not make their actions any more justified. In conclusion, while it is important to address concerns about freedom of speech and the potential for political extremism, it is equally important to condemn criminal acts such as looting and arson. These actions are not only illegal but also undermine the values of democracy and respect for property rights.

I didn't say all liberals, just a small group.

What did the stores of Ferguson have to do with Mike Brown's death? They hired mostly black people for the jobs and served the community which was mostly black. Yet they got burned down anyway and looted.
