Whether or not the poster believes in the “event” is irrelevant, posting second hand accounts are also subject to the policy as are supporting follow up comments and responses.

Mods are quick to quiet anyone they feel offends their own political or sociological viewpoints and let people who do more damage just get away with it. Doomsday posts do nothing but scare, confuse and intimidate people and should be considered on par with hate speech. (at least once they are proven untrue)
...
Maybe even instead of banning we saddle them with a “Bogus Doomsayer badge”

The censorship is indirect, meaning that it is not imposed directly by an individual. It is imposed by the fear surrounding the issue.
This is how censorship is applied to the masses...indirectly through fear. The media is constantly using against us, maybe I have been unclear in what I am referring to.
Ofcourse he does not want someone to act as a stand in Censor. The people would censor themselves, and their message would not be heard.

I like the idea of creating a prediction forum. I hadn't thought of that, must have been my single minded focus on censorship getting in the way.

It's not ironic at all. The OP is just acting like a jerk (as usual) and doing it blatantly. Other people that create threads create them because they believe in them and they want to contribute something to the community. Threads that are strictly bashing and aren't contributing anything should be deleted, as this one should. That is all I will say about this worthless thread as I am tired of giving him points for his 'contribution'.
