I used to be a McCain fan, but it has been a long time since my regard for him has withered. As for his service in uniform, I think it is to his credit, up to a point. That point being nepotism used to further his career while in uniform. Not impressive. And, of course, the nature of his service is not unquestioned:

Also, Sydney Schanberg wrote quite a bit on McCain’s not-enviable actions during the MIA POW controversies:

So, yeah, not a fan for some time of McCain in any capacity.

They only made it through because you alerted me to the problem and I liberated them from the spam folder. I have no idea why they were there in the first place.

An algorithm, of course.

I will borrow a thought from the algorithm comment thread:

To actually comment on the original point.

When the programs get so complex that a human–no matter how well educated and intelligent–can’t hold it in his mind, comprehend it, understand how it will work, what it’s capabilities truly are, and what it will, in the end, produce, we are already lost.

My impression is that we are already at the threshold–or perhaps beyond–of this happening.

Does your web admin publish anything about what triggers the Moderator?

Since this is kind of a loose thread (heh), I may experiment a bit.
Let me know if you want me to stop.

If you using iPhone there is small work to clear iPhone cache

Hold the Power Button until you get shutdown on top.
now, push hold the “HOME” button until go back to icons screen again
now iPhone cache cleared

I think you would like it.
I’m also testing if the URL goes through.

Neo – I added some bolding and it still didn’t go through. Then split it into two sections (because, two links) and still nothing.
Then reversed the two sections and the new “Example #1” went through (Steven Crowder and Antifa) but not the new “Example #2” ( McCain and the POW cover-up) until after I removed the URL.

Something in the moderation will not pass links to a certain website even with creative respellings. It can be deduced from the name of the publisher in the (finally) posted comment. If you have banned that site, that’s your prerogative, but I thought it was curious, in the current context of Big Tech Is Watching You.
