A blog with a history of always moderating each comment and censoring frequently, is I believe what the thread is primarily concerned with.

Why that seems to be a bit of a double standard to me? Is it OK to tout your blog as one that will never ever, ever ever, censor, and yet censor to allegedly protect your identity? The blog owner makes the issue of never censoring one of his platforms by repeating the claim almost daily. It is part of his schtick. (I never saw the comment. It was censored, plain and simple).

When you allegedly hold yourself out to a higher standard with repeated claims that you will never do something and then do to cover your own ..., I would call that hypocritical.
