Post 173194 by Sebmojo deleted for the following reason: Sorry for the delayed delete. It sounds like the linked piece is something deBoer has taken down, after having a major personal shake-up, and that puts all this into a pretty weird dialectical situation. Especially so for a kind of fightbait article, where it basically leaves people to just fight each other here. Seems like we've had the "leftists are too quick to judge/fixated on trivial matters on social media" fight before,which combined with the odd situation about this sort of disavowed article kind of tips this over the edge to delete. -- LobsterMitten

Australia: the White Fella's Story
Post 173019 by spaceburglar deleted for the following reason: Hey, this veers into OP Editorial Voice territory at the end (personally responding to an Op/Ed as opposed to linking to articles that respond), which is better for your own personal site or social media account. If you'd like to make a quick edit, contact us and we can fix and undelete. -- taz

All the planning charts and deletion orders have been on display at your local planning department in this thread for 7 of your Earth days, so you’ve had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and it’s far too late to start making a fuss about it now. -- Eyebrows McGee

Post 172735 by The Gooch deleted for the following reason: In general a few inflammatory tweets on a super charged subject doesn't make for a great post to Metafilter, and this seems to be a currently-evolving, less than an hour old twitter fight that you're involved in? which makes it at best extra weird. -- LobsterMitten
