Thread Name: BS: Do you need to be censored?
Subject: RE: BS: Do you need to be censored?
I have every right, as a moderator of this forum, to judge the worth of the posts. That is exactly what moderators do, in addition to the housekeeping. We apply what we know of the guidelines to the posts of those who exercise the privilege (note: I did not say "right") of posting here. My right is generated by the obligation I have as a moderator to perpetuate this site for the majority who post here. They expect we will accept the task of not allowing the forum to crumble from the attacks of trolls. It is what we do.

So go ahead and see if you can slip another false premise by. But in the meantime, any attacks, or redundant threads will be closed or deleted.

Is it not possible to view any right as a privilge or any privilge as a right? Would it be better not to make a distinction?

Do we not all have certain unalienable rights?
