Blocked from posting in political thread

[Anonymous]

Hi Jeff - I don't know why my posts re: anti-war funding and fears of WW3 are being removed from the Israel/Iran retaliation thread. I got an error/empty message when I posted the full comment, but was able to post "why" which I reported so you have a record

Can you please tell me why I am being blocked from posting?

I think i must be using a word that is blocked because I am able to make other posts. I feel like my posts are on topic and so I am just trying to understand how to participate in this thread.

If the broader foreign policy/war funding is not okay for that thread because it's off topic, I will try to find a better place to post.

Your diagnosis about using a blocked work is probably correct but I will need to investigate. I won't have time to do that for about an hour or so.

The system that I use for debugging things like this has been hosed for a while. So, I can't quite figure out why you were getting blocked. But maybe try replying without quoting the previous post.
