that is now HIDDEN by someone at IMC for reasons not known and not askable either. IF there is any questionning or non-agreement with those who think themselves the grand heroes or saviors of the latest victims - now the Palestinians - tomorrow it will be another newsy group of choice - this is clearly Not Allowed On Independent Media.

sorry. This IS clearly now a propagandized site - limited to only 1 view and slant. no others need appy to write here.

sorry. This is now obviously not as "independent" at all....but dependent on those 'volunteers' who chose to run this show their personal way - but they still pretend to let us read and write here with more diversity than 'regular' media.

But Nope. Not so. IMC is Not different here than main street. This is just a side street, emulating main street censorship, tho in pink instead of just cutting it out completely. how sweetly pinkish this hiding articles is. the staining an article or comment in the color implying shame ?



check it out.

anyone ever be able to get a response from the website contacts ? try writing "info@la.indymedia.org" and see if anything ever happens ...that is the ony contact given or available.



And again, here, the Hiding of a question about that very topic == Censorship on la.indymedia is saying clearly, YES ! of course, the IMC volunteers have to have some benefits, and that is to only pursue and allow their agreed upon interests and views.

but it is a surprise to me, because I believed.

I thought all different points of view were going to be allowed and read and viewed here. Not just a pre-selected kind.

Censorship is alive and well, censorhip is here as much as in the more expensive privatized media. Not different. IMC is just pretending to be "superior" and "free" and more .."independent"....

the question is "Independent" of what ?

independent of whom ?

independent of what influences ?

or Is it only Opposition to the main newspapers ?

Is this here the Righteous Rebellion of those who hate Israel and it's people with it ? [ emphasis is always on "Right" as in Being Right = Superior = Powerful, etc. ] and Some are even called 'self-hating jews' too, they are the most guilt and angry prone and are becoming very visible with the mid east turmoils that are not only P-I conflicts.

Is it "independent" to have to be self-censored... or else some non-transparent entity will censor your words here for you ?!

but maybe the chaos, turmoil, take-overs, [bail outs are part of the take-overs of plain folk by fancier folk], have affected this website too, and this misnamed "Independent" Media is as censored as the ordinary advertising kind is.

the paranoia, suspicions, distrust and fears fostered by oppositionalists then explode ! with such hidden-from-view actions....as HIDING THE ORIGIINAL ARTICLE ON THIS QUESTIONNING IF INDYMEDIA IS CENSORING is closing the case and minds of all readers here.

Yet how obvious an answer, so quickly !

that's fast action, eliminating any questioning of one group that is preferred and positively-discriminated for.

Here is more proof that there is fake images here too.. the images implying that there is diversity allowed, that if one political slant is not as popular it would be still allowed a voice here, of course !

Is that not the mission and basis of what this site is 'suppose' to be ? Or the image that is claimed, even if it is NOT SO...



except that in my past experiences when something obviously deliberately malicious is done... it was actually stupidity and ignorance and non-awareness that then looked more deliberate than the mean person could create or comprehend...so sometimes dumb people do dumb stuff and it looks just like deliberate intelligent bad actions.

how confusing...and how misleading....words used that mean not what they 'seem' or pretend to be...political speech... advertising talk....sales sly fraudulent images and lies to lure people into believe Independent also means Fair and Honest and free-speech-styled USA standards.

guess, we are wrong again.... opps !

the real story here too is this:

be pro-the current PC victims or be censored and hidden

be agreeable and smile sweetly UP and never disagree

be a "yes" person and believe all words/lies/propaganda as if your next words depended on being accepted [here]

be quiet and hypocritical, lie like the rest or be guillotined

= be cut off , exiled, denied equal citizenship

be a good child and servant and just pretend you are a full and equal citizen with a voice in this society

be obedient and take your complaints and concerns elsewhere....no one wants to hear about your desires...

ok,

gone !

"impermanence" is all this is....maya....illusions...changing and shifting ....as in the last eons of dinasours had it convert into urban city environments......

or ?
