There is a thread running in AIBU where people are being openly and freely racist. You've already deleted several posts on there so you're aware of it. Why are you allowing it to run?

Also why do you allow racism against travellers on here?

Why should we? Do you feel you have to constantly call out thugs and criminals from your ethnicity and defend the fact that you're not the same? No you don't. Because you aren't automatically assumed to be, I am.

Yes I see what you mean.
I meant for the benefit of the community as a whole having their name brought into disrepute.

I haven't seen any racism. I what I have seem is a great many threads baying for mumsnet to censor the site of anything that could possibly even be conceived as racism. Where is this obsession coming from? Is it genuine, or AI bots?

And yet, just today, you have posted a very clear anti-Muslim post, which constitutes Islamophobia. Ergo racism.

However, despite the fact that it is racist, MNHQ have allowed it to stand. (Bafflingly).

So you haven’t been censored.

Perhaps you should, though, educate yourself about what does and doesn’t constitute racism?

I can also see there is a helpful post to @AWitchCalledMeg explaining how her post was racist so I hope that helps her understand, and begin to notice the other racist remarks around her that other people pick up on.

@KellyMumsnet Could someone please respond to my question upthread about moderation of the likely shill posts/posters? Either on this thread or the latest thread where a poster has been deleted for “challenging on thread”?

I know August is the UK News silly season but the current shill campaigns are everywhere, I’m sure HQ do not consider MN to be immune from them.
