FIX YOUR COMMENT CENSOR ALGORITHM
Whatever bots you use to censor comments are broken. I've been trying to post a benign comment that doesn't attack anyone, doesn't use any profanity, and doesn't use any of the other stupid words you Yahoos have deigned to censor (because you're retards, one of the words you censor). Yet you will not post it, you keep deleting the comment. It is incredibly frustrating and one of the reasons why I'm about to drop Yahoo and never visit your sites again.

If I am Blackballed, I should know why. I am critical of the president, at times. However, I use decorum, and no profanity. I never take "Pot Shots" for no reason. I am socially kind and do not have any agenda.
I would like to understand why my "postings" are not being posted? Thanks!*** -

Yahoo, needs to censor their own articles if they are going to censor commentors. Some of the words used in their articles are ones we'd be censored for and yes, stop censoring Maine C**n for cats. That is a breed of cat.

******** Yahoo. Still no response from you fuckheads on any of this. Still no clarification of why comments are censored that don't violate terms of service. ******** and your entire company, Yahoo. I hope Trump throws you and Google and Facebook all to the Anti-Trust wolves.

Why do you feel it necessary to silence Conservative voices?
I don't use profanity, attack people personally, but I will point out what I view as faults in the authors logic... and the comments are deleted.
You give the concept of Free Speech a bad name. -

I attempted to post the first and last name of a NY Yankees catcher in a conversation during a game. Just his name, that was the entire post. Yahoo deleted it. If you have a problem with a person's given name, what can people post on the site? Rainbows? Unicorns? Ice cream? Are these innocuous enough?

My comments, although they might disagree with your positions, are always respectful and thoughtful. It is your censoring that has become unfriendly and in violation of your own posting philosophies.

"Marvel/Disney not casting Daniel Wu for this or anything else honestly is the real crime here. Dan Wu can act, AND he can fight. I was hoping he'd be cast as Spike Spiegel in the Netflix adaptation of Cowboy Bebop, but no they go with John Cho who couldn't pull off a kung fu move without throwing his back out."
HOW DOES THAT VIOLATE YOUR COMMENT GUIDELINES, YAHOO? YOU USELESS *OCKSUCKERS.

"Gio has proven himself to be a very good hitter. We better not see him lower than 4th in the lineup for the rest of the year. Boone seems to be clueless with his order, placing good hitters near the bottom and terrible ones like Sanchez hitting .225 near the top."
Yahoo speech Nazis refuse to allow this to post.

The post by another said baseball players aren't athletes because they never land a punch during brawls. My reply was... "So boxers can hit 100 mph fastballs?" And I was censored. Censor this: "********".

Dear Yahoo *uckheads: This comment was censored today -
"We will never win a World Cup in my lifetime so honestly I don't give AF about the national team. My club teams will suffice. Go Chelsea, Go Atlanta United!"How does that break your TOS? Especially since I've used the term "AF" many times before and not been censored?
YOU PEOPLE ARE USELESS *OCKSUCKERS.

By now, it's pretty common knowledge that yahoo moderators have been instructed to remove informative conservative comments. Sure, you can post "Trump 2020" but that's about the extent of it. List reasons to vote for Trump and it's iffy your comment will post. List reasons NOT to vote for liberals and your comment most likely won't post. Make any comment that gives information Yahoo should have given their audience but didn't, and your comment definitely won't post. However, sometimes such comments seem to post but simply don't get seen. This is tactic 1:
Tactic 1: When your comment seems like it should have gotten some response (such as a thumbs up or down) but didn't, check for you comment under a different yahoo account on a different computer. It's possible that you are the only one who can see your post and others can't. The yahoo moderator has the power to show you, and you alone, your comment in the stream, but nobody else can see it.
Tactic 2: Computer problems. No, it's not your imagination that everything's fine when you agree with the author of a yahoo article, but you suddenly get a "Temporary Network Error" message when you post an informative comment that does not agree. Again, you can post that you don't agree. The problem occurs when you post WHY you don't agree. Yahoo likes to post poorly researched leftist articles, but they don't like for those articles to look dumb once people get to the comments section.
Tactic 3: Similar to tactic 2, Yahoo can also disable your ability to pause videos, etc. in order to clutter the article page to make it difficult for you to post any more comments after you have posted one they don't like.
Here's how to get around this: recommending other email services that don't do these things to other users has, in my experience, made the yahoo moderator temporarily more forgiving of conservative comments in the comments section. Even now, I recommend zoho email because it's free, it's ad-free, it's fancy and organized and you can even retrieve sent messages after you've sent them. Best of all, switching to zoho means you're no longer supporting the racist organization yahoo has been from their inception, that believes that white people killed for their skin color is not newsworthy, but a racial slur used by a white person should be featured news, and that consistently misquotes our current president in order to prevent him from accomplishing his goal of preventing illegals from flooding our country, destroying our economy even more than it has already been destroyed.

Tried to post this comment today: "$100 says they're Muslims."
What exactly is wrong with that comment? How does that break your TOS?
