C'mon Man! Ease up on comment censoring. Here's another example of what Yahoo Comments censors/rejects.
In his 1994 autobiography I. Asimov, recounting a similar argument with fellow Jewish Sci-Fi writer Avram Davidson (who also claimed the Jews had never persecuted anyone), Asimov argued his claim of Jewish intolerance and silenced Davidson by writing: "Avram, you and I are Jews who live in a country that is ninety-five percent non-Jewish and we are doing very well. I wonder how we would make out, Avram, if we were Gentiles and lived in a country that was ninety-five percent Orthodox Jewish." Davidson never responded. -

...censoring comments. Here's an example (related to UTA dropping Susan Sarandon) that was rejected:
I'm reminded of something Isaac Asimov, arguarbly the greatest science fiction writer of all time (Foundation Trilogy, I Robot, et al) and also a Jew, wrote in his 1994 autobiography (writing that today would likely get him branded antisemitic).
Asimov recounts an occasion where he shared a platform with Elie Wiesel and in frustration over some of Wiesel's negative generalizations voicing his distrust of scientists and engineers because scientists and engineers had been involved in the Holocaust, Asimov (brooding and unable to keep quiet) challenged and silenced Wiesel on the matter of Wiesel's claim that the Jews had never persecuted others) by citing the choice 2nd century Maccabean Kingdom Hyrcanus of Judea gave the Edomites after conquering Edom - convert to Judaism or suffer the sword. Asimov concluded: "I might have gone further. I might have referred to the treatment of the Canaanites by the Israelites under David and Solomon. And if I could have foreseen the future, I would have mentioned what is going on in Israel today [1994]. American Jews might appreciate the situation more clearly if they imagined a reversal of roles, of Palestinians ruling the land and of Jews despairingly throwing rocks.". -

When my comments get rejected it would be helpful to let me know where I went wrong. I commented on an article written about a coach. I agreed with the article but a fan didn't like my comment. After several back and forth, I told her to please stop badgering me and I didn't want her writing me again. My comment was rejected. When I appealed it, that appeal was rejected but the person badgering me, her comments to me went through. The bottom line is how do we know what we did wrong if they're not specific?

Why do you supply gifs that if you use them you will automatically reject the comment? Is this a way of rejecting comments without having to have an real excuse?

Your sarcasm was wonderfully put, Is a complement, reeducate your 3 year old children doing your censorship or hire 4 year olds to take their place.

Same comment here. A couple of my comments, based entirely on known facts displayed in current headlines with no value judgements or other claims of any sort, were rejected. So, I wrote a short, specifically antisemitic comment, all opinion and hatred, that posted without issue.
That tells me a lot about the censors at Yahoo.

Please provide some insight as to why a particular comment gets rejected. I have had a couple. I typically disagree, but I can usually figure out what "probably" was the issue. I recently had one kicked back, and I have no idea what the issue was.
If you don't tell us what was objectionable, we have to guess, and we will probably guess wrong. -

Please keep conversations courteous and on-topic. That is hard to do when yahoo news blocks the comments out.

I have had two posts rejected recently with no notice as to why. Both of my posts were factually correct, so they should have been allowed. You also did not give me a notice of the rejection; they just simply did not appear. Why is this?

He has no proof of any war crimes by Israel which tries its best to avoid civilian casualties. Civilian casualites while terrorists are being targeted are NOT war crimes. Look at all of the civilian deaths when ISIS was rooted out of Mosul by the U.S. Even if by some measurement, Israel has committed any "war crimes," they are unintentional (and then by definition not actually war crimes) but Hamas has deliberately targeted and murdered civilians. They have no legitimate grievance as Israel left Gaza and it AND Egypt had no choice but to erect barriers and institute a blockade after Hamas started committing acts of terror.
