Actually, I think I will fucking leave. Its obvious to me people have lost their minds. Fox News and the Miami Herald have never been considered an academic source. Journalistic, maybe, but this is the same style of journalism that got us into the middle east with a vision of WMDs. You guys, as in the community, are no different that reddit. You are disenfranchising, censoring, and radicalizing people in the name of what...? Something that has not been proven, no sides of the issue have been investigated. It was clear the russian's hacked the emails when the election was going on, but now that the pizzagate issue exists all of a sudden the emails are "fake". Fucking bullshit. Like I said, no investigation. This is only going to get worse and people like this community are provoking it. You should be ashamed, as a community. I have been a reddit and wikipedia user for many years but I find myself leaving both communities because of this issue. Childoftherion (talk) 08:19, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
Disenfranchising and censorship are causing radicalization. This "fake news" narrative is a stepping stone. While you guys are "shutting down" everyone whom disagrees with you eventually there will be someone that comes to shut you down and no one will be left to help.
You have marked your talk page for deletion; in general, talk pages aren't deleted. I have blanked it instead. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 09:05, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
I understand that, but is it yours to blank? the history is there, but you are deleting my message, from my own talk page. You could just append, like a normal person. I am fully aware talk pages are not generally deleted. I am in the process of pushing to have my account deleted (actually deleted) and I would appreciate it if you held your edits to your own pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Childoftherion (talk • contribs)
- I see. Well the point is: user accounts are never deleted. (You are entitled to have it renamed to an arbitrary name like "Abandoned account 12345" and stop using it.) Likewise, accounts are generally not blocked on the user's request. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 09:17, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

I understand this. I have already put in to have my username changed. I am waiting on this process, until then I will be civilly disobedient. What I am seeing within this and other communities makes me sick. I do not want to be associated with either communities anymore. I want my account deleted.
