Tutorial to Download How to REDACTED Torrent/Full Movie for F
this post was issued a dmca takedown for linking to a page that linked to something that contained instructions for downloading some shitty movie, maybe. i'm pretty sure that is not a violation of copyright infringement, but i have better things to do than deal with this bullshit. fuck you, congress, for passing this shitty law. first against the wall and all that.
The Deadliest Day In Modern Paris?
Post 154814 by blankdawn deleted for the following reason: This is interesting and worth a post, but the proximity to the recent attack and the sort of "well, actually" framing of the article itself make this feel a little weird to post right now. Maybe revisit it a little ways down the line? -- cortex
“I just don’t think surgery turns a man into a woman.”
Post 154804 by Fizz deleted for the following reason: We have had a *bunch* of campus protest related stuff recently, and on top of that I feel like the context of this post being Greer's position getting pushback is going to inevitably invite exactly the kind of "okay but lets argue from scratch about whether trans women are reaaaaallly women" thing that's been hurtful as hell to our trans members in particular in past threads. Probably better to give this one a miss. -- cortex

Attack on Paris
Post 154692 by SageLeVoid deleted for the following reason: Oof, yeah, this looks like a pretty awful thing going down. That said, probably better to wait a little bit to put together a post once it's clearer what the deal is, vs. just linking a liveblog. -- cortex

"the expression 'Israeli settlement' or equivalent needs to be added"
Post 154672 by hoist with his own pet aardvark deleted for the following reason: Man, it's hard to hold a non-hyperbolically-awful discussion about Israeli politics when the leader of the state is the worst offender with the over-the-top hyperbole, but I don't see this as being worth the fight. -- restless_nomad

The Gay Men Who Hate Women
Post 154637 by crossoverman deleted for the following reason: I think this is a subject with room to discuss nuances, but it does not look like this article with this presentation is going to create that conversation. -- restless_nomad

It's not those kids on your lawn, it's you.
Post 154507 by Johnny Wallflower deleted for the following reason: I feel like we've done the Boomers: Are They The Worst? thing a number of times and it's not something we do a great job of; another post on that front should probably hold off for something that feels a little less like just a warming-over of the same editorial again. -- cortex
Gael-Rafael Choresharer Blogprofiter is a robust option
Post 154504 by prize bull octorok deleted for the following reason: I star heart the Toast, but it feels like we've been having a lot of stuff from there recently; maybe something to throttle back on a little bit if it isn't something particularly exceptional. -- cortex

We’d rather just ignore those folks trying to make themselves heard.
Post 154468 by roomthreeseventeen deleted for the following reason: Pullquote here is really sending this whole thing down the wrong path; consider reposting with a different framing? -- LobsterMitten

Sexual assault case at Stanford reversed
Post 154451 by BibiRose deleted for the following reason: We've had some fraught discussions about (accusations of) sexual assault recently, with members expressing a sense of exhaustion with the topic. That said, to be clear there is no wholesale ban of any sort on posting about this. But considering that and the mixed reception this is getting I'm inclined to push back a bit on posts of an "update on a specific case/incident" type, I hope you understand. -- goodnewsfortheinsane

Trapped In Florida
Post 154383 by the man of twists and turns deleted for the following reason: This is a mix of things with maybe too much explosively ugly point-and-laugh or point-and-gawk potential to go well; maybe in a while when there's time to have more detached reporting on it? -- LobsterMitten
