Oh, diddums!
Andrew Bolt has another whine about some of the hate-filled violence-threatening homophobic racist arseholes that are drawn to his blog like flies to shit :
Should I really be censoring such opinions? Should it really be an indictment of me that I don’t? Won’t it be said that the more I censor comments, the clearer it is that those I let through are the ones I endorse?So as you can see, against my duty, as I perhaps arrogantly perceive it, to allow as free a discussion as possible, there is my ego and my self-interest in protecting my reputation. I should also admit that taking off the comments function should free up more than 10 hours of every choked week. What’s more, reading and checking those comments that I can get to can eat at my optimisim as well as my time.
You should see the stuff we must delete - or, rather, you shouldn’t.
Much there in the way of threats of violence against those you target that you thought you should pass onto any of our intelligence agencies? Or the police?
This is what I’ve been wrestling with in this wretched week.Of course, it's all about The Idiot. Not about the people, the scientists, activists, journalists, community workers, he continually holds up for vicious ridicule and slandering by the worst of his droogies.
Get over yourself, mate. Your reputation will never leave you.
The internet does not forget.
