the laser
becomes scalpel
becomes boning knife
becomes cleaver
this faux palace of free discourse
has become a red wedding
where powers - with otherwise silent impunity
now censor
with a fervency up to now unseen...
it is every day ...
sometimes post by post ...
more often poster by "offensive" poster
(in whatever iteration)
so that the now homogenizing product
is almost... pasturized...
and we,
we who struggle to remain,
are.... better(?) for it...
soon, it is hoped...
there will be no need to raise a voice
to disagree
to discuss...
it'll just be pretty by fiat.
and we will have barely had to rise to do it for ourselves...
i'd sell now, laurelmanu.
the goose is become monster.
or kill the discussions, entirely...
peddle the flesh paper
as a webzine/erotic repository
and save yourself the troubles
trying to moderate an open social network...
clearly, you've no longer any faith in the wisdoms of a crowd
to cull (and moderate) the outliers.
and as you apply boot to throats that once could moderate themselves,
only the outliers and the otherwise broken
have the resolve to muddle forward...
i once believed that the discussion boards here,
especially the "unmoderated " gb,
could weather almost any storm of political or social disruption...
could smooth the sharper edges of any drama
could socialize almost any odd issue
that reasoned voices could... in time...
it was intolerance eventually that killed 'the well'...
stifled its nascent (and oft volatile) vibrancy
and killed its unmolested voyage into the then unknowns
by...
well intention-ed plastic surgeries...
yeah... ancient history, but instructive...
what the discussion boards,
especially the gb,
certainly cannot survive today
is spurious meatball surgery...
no two snowflakes alike...
to disregard the ever changing wondrous tundra
in just whose image viktor, would you expect this creature to emerge?
