Censorship Sexism Nationalim on VeganForum.com

The censorship on veganforum.com is awful.
They removed our post just because we accused a British
nationalist and sexist of being racist and sexist (or
nationalist/xenophobe). The moderator removed it just
because she/he disagree with us

I have no problem with VeganForum.com allowing sexist and
nationalist posts. I am FOR free speech. But obviously
they have a problem with our replies as the moderator has
removed our posts, when we accused one British
nationalist and sexist of being a racist/ xenophobe and
sexist.
I can understand if some people disagree with us,
but it is a shame to remove every message they
dislike.

''The woman for me is vegan, attractive, demure,
OBEDIENT , chaste, a staunch anti-EU-er, a non-smoker,
a non-boozer, a non-druggy, against metric weights and
measures, obedient, of BRITISH ANCESTRY, someone who
likes pixies, a fan of the film 'Zulu', interested in
keeping fit, cheerful, obedient, and obedient.''


Note- the capitols in quoting above are mine.

I wasn't aware this was a vegan discussion forum- I thought it was an Independent Newswire.

If you don't like the way a forum is run, don't whinge about censorship, set up your own forum, its piss easy enough to do.
