SoylentNews is people
SoylentNews
The past is prologue! What has been, will be again. Amor Fati!
Once again, aristarchus submissions are being suppressed! By this I mean, not rejected, but hidden, concealed, obscurated. These three submissions are listed as "accepted", but do not appear in the queue, or anywhere else.
US Army veteran among group of suspected neo-Nazis arrested by FBI on gun charges
White nationalist who spoke at Charlottesville arrested on fugitive warrant charges
3 Alleged Members Of Hate Group 'The Base' Arrested In Georgia
Yes, typical aristarchus submissions. Fake accepted just to mess with me? Or deep-sixed to keep coverage of alt-right terrorism off of SoylentNews? Possibly related to the recent threading bug TMB has discovered? Or another "Athanasius" scenario? QAnon, or Lizard People?
*****
Update: more rejected submissions, as the Hate goes down in Virginia.
Proud Boy "Tiny" Toese Pleads Guilty to 2018 Assault
And,
What is The Base? FBI arrest of alleged white supremacists puts focus on extremist group
And,
‘Emasculated’ Virginia gun nuts mocked for ‘purchasing toys, dressing up in costumes, and fantasizin (one of my personal favorites!)
And,
ALEX JONES CRUISES THROUGH STREETS IN INFOWARS 'BATTLE TANK' AS PROUD BOYS JOIN HIM AT VIRGINIA, the crazy does not get any more crazy than this, unless it is Texans in Congress.

New excuse for censorship on SoylentNews! Makes me feel so much better. Here it is:
Thank you for your submission. Unfortunately it does not meet the criteria spelled out in the submission guidelines, which can be found at https://soylentnews.org/faq.pl?op=editorial and has therefore been removed from the submissions queue. Please consider revising it based on the submission guidelines and resubmitting. Alternately you could consider posting it as a journal entry.
Yup, gonna revise this an resubmit! That'll work! Nothing like getting around censorship by doing exactly what the censors want! Hooboy! I feel a spate of submissions about alt-right Neo-nazi really stupid racists and Trump supporters coming on! Pray that the fetuses of Evangelical miscarry! Turn about is fair play. Oh, and TMB is behind on his payments.

Yet you still refuse to acknowledge the racism behind the nationalist brexit movement. Fascism always starts with the more reasonable sounding things like economic opportunities. Soon you find yourself invading other countries with racism used as the emotional spurs to motivate the jar heads.
You're probably too old to catch on to reality. Y'know what they say about history and those who refuse to learn it...

There is racism in each and every community to some degree or other.
Any racism that exists in the UK would not disappear if we had agreed to stay in the EU. In the USA, the racism has been visible for many decades either against black people, native Americans, or currently also the alt-right and anti-fa. If France, there is still racism against Algerians, Muslims and other group who have settled here from outside France. There are examples also for Russia, the Middle East, and elsewhere.
Brexit hasn't been hijacked by the racist element in the UK, it has simply been publicised more because it sells newspapers, it is thought to be more 'newsworthy' than looking at the majority of people who live together without any friction whatsoever.
You are probably too young to know enough to make an intelligent assessment. There, now has my ad hom attack been any more useful to this discussion than your ad hom attack? No. Learn how to counter racism rather than simply blaming the world around you. You are part of that world - that is your responsibility. Now you can either face that challenge or cower in fear because of all the nasty racists that surround you. Don't fear different religions or beliefs. Don't worry about the colour of someone's skin which is dictated by their genes depending on where their ancestors originated on the globe. Don't separate different cultures simply because you do not understand them. And don't come on this site stirring up racism by trying to blame it for all the world's ills.

You fucking limey racist twat! You have pissed me off! Do you even read the false equivalencies you spew on this site?
This is why you are a NaZi sympathizer, as were a good many of your countrymen back in the day. You have read "Remains of the Day"? Anti-fa is anti-fascist. They are not anti-white, irregardless of the fact that "white" is not a real race, any more than "English" is a real people. Mongrel Anglo-saxon Celtic Norse Spanish Moors and motherfuckers! Do not get me started, janrinok, or I will come down on your British ass with the crimes of centuries. Rhodes? Cecil Fucking Rhodes? Do you know?
You pathetic Brit! How can you be so stupid? I am millennia older than you, I have seen it all, from the Roman Conquest of Greece and Africa, to the fall of Rome, the Rise of idiocy in the Roman Catholic church, the insanity of the Thirty Years War, and yes, your current concerns about "STEM", are pathetic and short sighted. You have no idea who you are dealing with, and it would be best for you to listen to those with more knowledge, experience, and education. If you EVER talk down to me like this again, I will burn SoylentNews to the ground!
Now, go back and hide in France, you goddamed Brexiteer. May god have mercy on your soul.

You need to go and see your psychiatrist - you are actually believing that you are Aristarchus. Burn away!

Are you saying I am not aristarchus? Given your inability to understand Brexit, I question your ability to question my identity.

It is you that is misunderstanding Brexit with regards to myself. You accuse me of being a Brexiteer yet I live in France - where I will be remaining. Perhaps the EU will be better off without the UK as a member just as much as the UK hopes to be better off without the burden of federalism being pushed upon it. I'm not saying that I believe either of those to be necessarily true, but you certainly don't know my views on Brexit.
I will suggest that I do understand how the British population is thinking right now more than you do. I am in daily contact with many people in the UK who have expressed the reason why they voted as they did - both for and against - and many of those reasons have not been as well publicised as those that the mainstream media seem to concentrate on.

You are the person who uses the Aristarchus identity on this site. You are NOT Aristarchus of Samos who was an ancient astronomer and mathematician.

Pretentious idiot. What on earth do you think that proves?
I suppose that you feel you are spoken down to again. Well what makes you think that you are superior in any way to any other member of our community? You are just another community member.

I can translate it - I had no problem doing that. But why should you feel the need to use any language other than English on an English-language site?
I can speak some German, Russian, French and the original Serbo-Croat from before the Balkan wars. All irrelevant here.

Another crime against humanity by the Brits! Besides all the imperialism and racism, the spread of one of the least suitable languages across the globe as a horrific lingua franca! We would be better off with French, or Latin, or even Chinese.
