The owner, administrator, or whatever the proper term is does not maintain this web site out of the goodness of his heart. He is in a business. The business of selling advertising.
If advertisers (potential or actual) start getting the idea that their audience is shrinking because the site is becoming too political, too mean spirited, too whatever, then it becomes more difficult to sell advertising space.
So the administrator has to walk a thin line and cut off threads or delete posts which he deems too controversial or offensive. Lest his income begin to suffer.
So we have to play by his rules.
As for the OP, no one forces you to read any thread you might not like.
