Subject: Re: {greenyouth} MODERATION AND CENSORSHIP
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]The moderation here definitely smacks of double standards, knowingly or unawares displayed. How the issue be got over without focusing on the clear-cut division along the pro and anti dalit stance on either side is yet to be seen. I would rather share Jenny's reservations against repeated use of characteristically male idioms of aggression and combat though, I don't want to support Anivar in keeping the posts of Ranjith, Geedha and a few others under moderation. Moreover, scant attention has been given to the political questions raised by them rather than the personality subject to their criticisms in their postings in question. Perhaps, one cannot always afford to behave 'gentlemanly' to the detriment of the seriousness of the issue trying to be raised. (In this case, the question is why Sugatakumari gets so much of prominence; whose credentials of concern for the rights of people marginalized by caste, gender,oppressive sexual / moralility norms, etc , are already doubtable, or rather tainted by her known reflections on record, in many such acts of horror perpetrated against these sections.) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Green Youth Movement" group.
