Re: The Guardian has gone downhill since Rusbridger left.
"[...] something you can't actually post on the Guardian CiF without falling foul of their terms, [...]"
My suspicion is that the Grauniad mods use the Roman Legions' meaning of "decimate" to remove random posts - "pour encourager les autres".
They strike me as being thin skinned, partisan, and arbitrary. I said so in a comment that they removed - along with similar criticisms by other people.
Are they paid moderators, volunteers - or is it outsourced to a service in somewhere like China? Do the writers of the articles act as their own moderators?
Whenever I am tempted to pay them a subscription - I remember how their moderators actions suggest they are too keen to suppress dissenting views.
