    thus spaketh the CENSOR...

    "I'm not debating every deletion with you. "

    CENSORS don't have to tell you a fucking thing...

    (li'l peeps aren't for shit...)

    hee hee hee

    "I've given you my views on this already."

    CENSORS don't have to explain themselves...

    (dissenters are so demanding and unpleasant...)

    ho ho ho

    "I can't make it any clearer."

    CENSORS don't have to clarify every instance of CENSORSHIP...

    (they know better than li'l peepers...)

    ha ha ha

    "Please don't re-post things I've deleted."

    CENSORS are nice and civilized...

    (loudmouths are mean barbarians...)

    ak ak ak

    "If I deleted something, I had a reason for doing it."

    CENSORS are ever-so-reasonable...

    (they are only protecting us...)

    oh oh oh

    "You don't have to agree with the reason, but re-posting deleted posts just makes me have to go delete them again, wastes my time, and inclines me to just start deleting indiscriminately."

    CENSORS are powerful and heroic...

    (readers are weak and pathetic...)

    wow wow wow

    oh, and CENSORS who 'believe' (sic) in fwee speech are NOT hypocrites, either...

    naaaaah
