Freedom's Safest Place | You Haven't Met America
Post 160063 by Trinity-Gehenna deleted for the following reason: You've run afoul of the house style, I'm afraid - this is bog-standard editorializing and doesn't work here. -- restless_nomad
'The Schuyler Sisters' from Hamilton get MisCast
Post 160057 by Foci for Analysis deleted for the following reason: This is adorable but we've had a *lot* of Hamilton in a few days, and we're going to have to push back a bit against single cover videos. -- restless_nomad

You Should Consider Having Sex With A Bearded Man.
Post 160011 by Sleeper deleted for the following reason: Hey, sorry, but we're trying to keep US election-related stuff limited to a few threads, and this is sort of goofy news-of-the-weird slash point-and-laugh about this one guy, which has already been brought up in this thread. -- taz

When Movements Backfire
Post 159998 by harriet vane deleted for the following reason: This is getting flagged a lot, and while the article is interesting, the problem with some hateful public statements by one of the authors is making it pretty much impossible to have a focused discussion on the topic. Please contact us to other possible ways to make the post work differently. Thanks. -- taz

Post 159996 by not that girl deleted for the following reason: Seems a little thin, and we don't usually allow open kickstarters in FPPs. -- Eyebrows McGee

This is a war over how dialogue in America will be shaped.

Crude Cocktail of Ignorance and Bias
Post 159977 by R.F.Simpson deleted for the following reason: I don't think this is framing that's going to lead to a constructive conversation. -- restless_nomad

The Dangerous Acceptance of Donald Trump
Post 159947 by Sebmojo deleted for the following reason: We have more than sufficient Trumpery in the current election thread. -- restless_nomad

our nightmare
Post 159855 by p3on deleted for the following reason: Sorry, this seems like fightbait about subjects we've got open posts on already - election, academic climate, inequality, etc. -- LobsterMitten
But I want to know now!!
Post 159872 by mosschief deleted for the following reason: Hey, we're trying to keep a handle on the election commentary by confining it to relatively few posts - you can post this in the currently active thread -- restless_nomad
"Let the dirtybutts die."
Post 159849 by anotherpanacea deleted for the following reason: It takes a while to get there, but this is an election-related personal op-ed blog post, and the discussion the author is raising will work better in one of the election posts -- taz

This Is About More Than Politics
Post 159828 by NoxAeternum deleted for the following reason: This seems like it's got kind of a truckload of inside baseball attached to it that is likely to yield up a thread a lot more about arguing competing factors than about having a decent discussion about the nominal topic of the essay. I'm not sure if there's a better way to post about this exactly but this doesn't seem like a great starting point for a thread. -- cortex
Sapiens 2.0: Homo Deus?
Post 159818 by kliuless deleted for the following reason: Sorry, but a post on artificial intelligence that segues into a US politics post isn't going to work. Feel free to rework this as AI/technology post, and add pertinent Bernie / Hillary / Trump stuff in one of the election threads. Please contact us if you have questions! -- taz

I was so scared I would shit myself while the client was thrusting
Post 159774 by item deleted for the following reason: This is a totally okay thing to post but this is, in fact, kinda poor judgement for what to use as the title text and is undercutting the conversation as a result. Maybe try again tomorrow with more of a tell rather than show approach to "awful stuff inside" and let folks decide whether or not to click through. -- cortex
Gelatinous Cube for VP
