re: #19 Charles

The admins over there are working their asses off to hide this flood of sick racism. New comments are coming up hidden now.

A good part of the cleaning up is automatic — their system rejects posts with certain words like “black” or “Muslim” (and, amusingly, any post with the words “Rupert Murdoch”) in it. A lot of it also gets cleaned up by the few sane people who happen to be there at any particular time and flag posts that contain deliberately misspelled racial slurs. I don’t know what remaining part is done by humans, but I’d assume right now it’s a lot.
