In short, moderator Burton and the entity known as "Colby" - whose shiftworker status is exposed by frequent changes in speech patterns and literacy levels (one version can spell hypocrisy, another renders it "hypocracy" etc) - repeatedly disrupted serious informed debate in the Political Conspiracies section.
Techniques utilized included, but were not limited to: making posts invisible and inaccessible to the original poster; placing posters on moderation without seeking agreement from other moderators; diverting threads into blind alleys; engaging posters in endless debate on tiny, irrelevant points; baiting posters; trolling posters; and abusing posters.
Simkin was, as accurately described by Magda, routinely missing in action.
As were nearly all the alleged moderators and "forum leaders" whose virtual permanent absence left "moderation" of the board to Burton.
The Political Conspiracies section of the EF is now a deadzone.
Mission accomplished, Burton and "Colby" have now parked themselves in the JFK section - despite acknowledging zero knowledge or expertise regarding the subject in question.
The EF's treatment of Peter Lemkin, and destruction of his posts, was a disgrace.
