[Trisquel-users] so now we ban unpopular posts?

I think the new rating system is basically a good thing, since it provides  
direct feedback from the community.
However, the fact that negative votes can cause the post to hide for members  
of the board and even to become unreadable for non-members (so basically it  
got deleted for outsiders) is very critical in my view.
It's of course not literally censorship since people can express their  
opinions somewhere else, but still i think it's a horrible step of  
intolerance for a freedom loving community
I'm well aware that the intention of this system is to get rid of unwelcome  
(some also call them 'different') opinions and keep the trisquel board free  
of non-conform ideas.
Is that the spirit of free culture?
I therefore propose to remove the function of banning posts.
