Articles with facts about elite connections & 1% working together screwing us over, now 'off topic'



Seriously what the fuck has happened to this place?

This thread has articles with facts- what the hell is the problem?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026640679

It also got 11 recs before it was locked, seems DUers were interested in what this thread said.

Are we too stupid to decide for ourselves what to read?

1%ers are working together to redistribute all the wealth and power to their own hands and we can't talk about it because it is a 'conspiracy theory'

It seems this site is working to protect the powers that be.

Go ahead and lock it- i don't freaking care because like so many others I rarely come to this site anymore

because of the ridiculous censorship and focus on petty distractions instead of the real root of our problems and solutions.

Octafish is one of the most intelligent, well written posters here, and now he can't even post stuff-

This is bullshit!

"now he can't even post stuff- " Not true. Similar to other opinions you made.

"Go ahead and lock it- i don't freaking care" Strange way of showing a lack of care.

"ridiculous censorship" Most of us are very happy conspiracy theories aren't allowed in GD.

"This is bullshit!"

Correct. That is why META is no longer here.

Explain how this is a conspiracy theory, and let us know which other hosts agree with you. Why did you lock this?

according to the terms of service, my post should have been locked for complaining about DU

But Octafish's should not have, it is three stories with facts about connections.

The elites are well connected and working together to squash us, and DU doesn't think we should be able to talk about it?
