So now Mumsnet deletes posts on the grounds that they're offensive to people with religious beliefs and MRA's

On the circumcision thread a post of mine was deleted and when I asked mumsnet why, this was the response:

"While it is true that posts we don't tend to delete posts on the grounds of being in poor taste because it would be really hard to draw the line; we do as in this case remove posts that, in our judgement, are simply beyond the pale.

Your post was reported to us and tbh we felt that * (an offensive acronym for MRA's) was beyond the pale tbh, especially when added to the rest of your post which was also incredibly offensive to anyone with religious beliefs."

So basically, we are not allowed to post things which offend people's religious beliefs in conjunction with offending MRA's.

Just thought I'd let you all know. I'm not even annoyed about this, after last week's targeting I think it's obvious that MN really don't want radical feminism represented here.

You think wrong tortose,where exactly on this thread have I said boring or pointless
You're simply making things up to suit your post,inventing phrases I haven't used
Frankly I'd be more erudite than saying boring or pointless

Just occasionally you're quite funny SM.

I always look to you for guidance of course.

Whenever I stray off the path and get misguided, there comes SM to put me right.

I am forever indebted to you.

It can get a wee bit catty on FWR admittedly.

This is usually the bit where I say, 'LRD, don't you have a thesis to finish?' but that would be queening it.

You know, I am going to have to finish that bloody thesis just so that I can stop you saying that! Grin

Night fastidia.

Anyway, I can see Fastidia's POV.

Don't look for a pun. I ran out.
