Questions about Moderation

I again gave @dougselsam a time out, for some 18 days this time.

This time I did not bother to moderate his comments from the last couple of days, with the one exception below, except to move some of them.

So, I deleted this:

And ignored these and others:

Commentary does not add to or improve the conversation.

Climate change denialism.

Commentary does not add to or improve the conversation.

Source has an agenda.


@dougselsam you shouldn’t let poets lie to you I’ll declare commentary about the lack of critical analysis in the news off-topic on this forum. Anyone capable of advancing the field has enough scientific and media literacy to not need to be reminded of such basics, and won’t be hypnotized by the TV.

And a negative tone is not a substitute for valid criticism. That’s just negative vacuousness, which I will rate limit, now through time outs.

Questions are welcome like always.
