My Statue of Liberty postcard<\/a> went missing overnight, 3 days after I put it up. Any suggestions for the next step? I would of course never dream of pulling down the annan v\u00e4rldsbild<\/em> poster in retribution; that would be stooping to the same level and contradict the whole point of the exercise. Shall I try putting up a pro-WTO stickerI’m out of Statue of Liberty postcards.<\/span>? Or shall I do a control experiment and put up something everybody agrees with, like End hunger now!<\/em> just to check that it is really the content of my speech that is being objected to, not the delivery?<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the ad for the real estate agent also disappeared. This leads me to believe that the censor must have had a small pang of conscience; something along the lines of: “Well, we really can’t let that misguided response continue to sit alongside the poster, but taking down just the postcard might look a bit too targeted, so I will also take down some of the ads to make it look like I did a regular clean-up of the bulletin board.”<\/p>\n

In an apparently unrelated movevia Erik<\/a>, via Manhus Beta<\/a>.<\/span>, the Swedish chapter<\/a> of Indymedia<\/a> decided to start censoring contributed articles on its website as well as appended comments<\/a> [Swedish]. The reason seems to be that articles were being posted<\/a> [Swedish] criticizing the human rights abuses of regimes in the Middle East other that Israel. American Indymedia chapters, to their credit, are up in arms on the move<\/a> by the Swedish chapter:<\/p>\n

Readers say the editors have started to act like the fascists they claim to oppose, and to use tactics aimed to stymie free debate. Others have complained about the apparent racism of the editors, since censorship has been particularly harsh regarding comments or articles from specific ethnic groups. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Maybe the editors live in my building.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
