Reposting a note on SF-IMC editorial policy, and why I'm no longer interested in posting there. |
Ah, to hell with it.

In another post, 'one of the editors' describes Indybay editorial policy as follows: "The basic rule here is don't annoy any of the editors. If you don't like the rule, you can either go somewhere else where the rules more agree with you, or you can start your own site and make your own rules."
A frankly appalling admission of what the editorial policy here really is: partly an effort to maintain an ideological purity by silencing opposition views, and partly pure raw whim.
Needless to say, I'm very disappointed. That policy sank IMC-Jerusalem, and it'll sink you too if you don't pause for a moment and see where you're headed.
Meanwhile, I'll head back to my hometown IMC, where "open publishing" isn't just an empty promise, and y'all can congratulate yourselves on having successfully repelled a heretical unbeliever -- hyup, hyup, didn't we repel the infidel, hyup, jammed our ears good and tight we did, din't we nessie, hyup, hyup, din't we.
