It feels as if the UK is just digging themselves farther and farther into a dead-end. This type of control isn't going to stop if they keep promoting it, but there's only so much you can control before you hit a wall and the dam bursts.

Are you the only one able to downvote content on saidit? I saw some comments under your comments being the only comments with 0 points in both directions. Nice how you don't care for your own rules again :D

There is no downvote. The 0 votes people are unvoting themselves.

I care for my own rules greatly, I don't appreciate the false accusation.
