Reply #42: If I'm twisting your words, it's because I'm trying honestly to figure out [View All]

what you're trying to convey, and failing. Either you don't have a solid grasp of English writing, you're under the influence of mind-altering chemicals, or you're operating from references I don't understand. Whichever it is, I can't begin to comprehend what this post means, nor do I understand why my previous interpretations of your posts are flawed.

I don't know what "'board' is wrong and intentionally obtuse" means. I really don't. This is a board. I thought we were talking about the board "Democratic Underground." I don't understand your complaint.

I'm not sure I know what you mean by "you pretend this is about 'removal.'" I am confused. Looking at your post, I think you said this board is an echo chamber because some people are no longer here. I took this to mean the tombstoning of people. I am guessing you are trying to say that people have left because they do not like the environment here. I do not really understand what this has to do with anything in my OP, nor do I understand what this has to do with claims of an echo chamber.

Again, I do not understand how a political board that is currently wracked by fractious infighting over political issues could be called an "echo chamber." I don't see how the voluntary turnover in this board's membership would apply to this discussion.

I don't understand your claim, "people don't want to come in HERE." I'm getting much higher latency from DU now than I did a week ago. It seems to me like many people want to come in here and debate at the moment.

Above all, I don't understand what any of this has to do with my original point about claims of censorship. I'd like to be able to have a conversation with you about this, but I really am having quite a bit of difficulty interpreting what you're trying to say.
