Subject: RE: BS: Just the facts
I thought bottom feeder referred to Akenaton. After all, he's the one who keeps referring to anal sex.

Sadly, moderation within Mudcat doesn't include nipping hatred in the bud. It allows the the oxygen of publicity to discrimination on the basis of free speech but deletes those pointing it out.

It has become a joke on the BS section. A joke that detracts from the excellent music resource. Sadly, it is a joke that in the case of using irrelevant health statistics wrongly to demonise people, including those on Mudcat, is also an offence where the criminal lives. I have repeatedly informed both my ISPs and my friend has also passed on details to the police where he and Akenaton live.

It is one thing to laugh at clowns. It is another to look the other way whilst twenty first Kristlenacht takes place by homophobic criminals. People should not have to stumble upon this evil hatred. Laws in this case are to protect the innocent, not limit free speech.

Akenaton is the first to scream when "free speech" questions him, but seems to think it should be ok to post hatred.

Either moderate or remove BS. It would be a pity to remove it, so sort it before UK ISPs remove it from their customers. Because that could happen. You can ask, which I have, and BT have received 63 complaints about unmoderated incitement to hatred on Mudcat. I only sent the form twice....
