The Comment is Free (CiF) moderators are at it again.
Someone called Sian Anderson has published an article which basically says that young people are too thick, too lazy and too uninterested to read anything longer than about five words in connection with politics, so how can politicians (whose fault it is for making politics so boring and uncool and woevah) blame young people for not voting.
Within minutes, various Guardian staff are called in to provide backup and take the flak.
Moments later, the moderators arrive, culling anything which highlights the idiocy of the writer and the piece.
I wrote a comment which asked about Galileo and the need for free speech and its connection with political oppression.
It was deleted before the page had fully loaded after posting it.
Now that is super efficient.

The Guardian and CiF are looking increasingly pathetic by the day.
If you have to rely upon aggressive censorship to maintain order, you have lost control.
