Indymedia editors revert to simpering censoring type

After 1 or 2 good years where they have allowed deeper interpretation of memes and their real world exponation into the Indymedia threads, together with online arguments, the editors resort to censoring type

Given each staged local terror event, the editorial volunteers duck for cover, censoring, or in their self-justifying world view, hiding commentary on pressing events, particularly leaving up the milder and less responded extracts from online blogs posing as the authors of such, against their own guidelines.
Note those little responded to commentaries on the events in London and Glasgow, left still standing, against those more controversial and well responded to threads that have been hidden
Looking in the archives of the ticking out of threads I can't even find admissions as to who hid those posts
We appear to be entering another stage of IM censorship just like the old ones, and this post will be hidden, so most of the users have no idea what's going on.
UK Indymedia retains its status as the most censorious and policing indymedia in the world
