UPDATE: Not only can I not post comments, I can no longer even read any of their pages unless I mask my IP.
Oh, what will I do with myself now? If I’m not welcome in a place where freedom of speech is claimed to be respected despite how offensive comments might be, I guess there’s just no place for me.
If I recall correctly, the comment I made went something like this:
The only people to have defeated the Jews in recent history are the Germans.
What are you on about? The only one could make sense of the idea of a struggle between them would be if Bolshevism was a stand in for the Jews (which itself would be an erroneous idea), and even then it was the Bolsheviks that defeated the Nazis. Even the sickos that admire Hitler express disappointment that he didn’t “finish the job”, as he wasn’t even successful in his aims against Polish shtetl-dwellers. The Arabs remember which leader actually defeated the Jews: Nebuchadnezzar.

Being banned from a site that claims that “As history shows time and again, the Jew is a fountain of wickedness. Someone whose very being is naturally predisposed towards evil.” isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

I suppose so, but I wanted to work in a reference for the greatest improvement in a band’s name by mistake ever. I think it’s ironic when people complain about their freedom of expression being stifled and then try to censor others (though it is of course their site and they can do what they want with it). Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Geert Wilders trying to ban the Koran, for instance.

I always greatly disliked that inconsistency of Ayaan and Wilders, their tendency to want to impose their views on society; something which Pim Fortuyn did not possess, alas he was murdered by a left-wing vegan.
I think it is something very American to realize that banning something will not make it go away. In Europe, the immediate reaction is always a government imposed solution, a ban in these cases. They only follow the logic of a naturally authoritarian society. Mein Kampf is bad and banned (the weak population needs to be protected from bad influences by the elites), so the Koran should be similarly approached. Ayaan wanted to ban all Islamic schools in America too I read somewhere in an interview in reason magazine. These people are no libertarians/individualists, although they are still infinitely better than the socialist authoritarians.

“Socialist authoritarians”? Hey, I represent that remark.
