With no explanation, of course. All I had done was to politely correct a false statement in my first post in the group. The truth is enough to get you banned there; they are very delicate flowers.

He/She issues the block then replies when you don't have a chance to respond.

Che seems to be the generalissimo over in that room. I give her credit for her determination.

My # might be off in my sig line, since one person who used to claim to be a Sanders supporter, but spend all his time attacking us, was suddenly reinstated once he became a hatchet man for their side. I think everyone knows here who that imposter is/was.

places or certain times.

I have a thing that I have learned through life, I never trust what someone says when they are constantly saying that others are lying. I guard my wallet around people who claim that others are always stealing from them.

I think there should be a policy that if they ban you from the thread, that part is locked. I find it highly unprofessional that a person in charge of banning can turn around and post a reply right after. I am not sure how you got to so many posts to not get banned. I was banned for asking a poster for a link to the claim they were . Not only did they refuse, but the foil hatted talking about a conspiracy for Bernie to steal the votes from the DNC. The tone was a bit aggressive and it was going down a dark path, so told the poster they were going off topic, and I was instantly banned. It was my first thread I had commented on ever. I then asked about blocking the group feeds because I was tired of seeing the HRC spam that I could not even comment on...and the best part is several HRC people followed me in to the thread to insult me for wanting to turn off their feed. They had an issue with the fact I could not take facts or win the argument so I just wanted to hide it instead of debate? I couldn't even respond!!! It was crazy. I am sure it has made my tone here more aggressive since seeing how people get treated for having a normal conversation. Sorry you got banned.

Also the feeling of hitting the delete forever from the feed is nice. The fact our groups can ban people for no reason does make them akin to banner ads, where they are just streaming stuff at us, and we can't do anything about them. That was the main reason I blocked it. IT is amazing how many of the worst posts just vanished, but if you can post anything with no chance of dissent that is the result. I think by default they should all be off since places like those don't fit the definition of free speech (no right to block others).

I was pretty slow, too - #700. First time I even posted there; tried to correct a fact, maybe got a little cute. And got 86'd instantly. What's left is basically a small, whiney support group for chronic butthurt.

Sometimes photos are prohibited

At Ise Shrine in Japan, for example, visitors are prohibited from taking photos of the shrine itself because it is believed that taking pictures insults the dignity of the shrine.
