but have you considered this site in your presentation? If you look around you will regularly see posts dissapear. You will see that censorship is rife here, and that many posts and posters get banned.
I know Litkicks is not a country, but does it need to be? Isn’t it infact worse that on a supposedly open minded and free thinking forum, populated by artists and poets that we have censorship?
I think it would make an interesting twist to your presentation. I feel it would show a side of censorship and control that is widely ignored. It would show that censorship isn’t the sole property of small nations run by tyrants and dictators, and that even amongst the so called liberal elements there is an element of thought that certain things should be surpressed.

I’ve not used my membername, and waited till the post is some way down the board, because I am sure that if this was seen there would be a high chance that it would be deleted. Similar posts to this have been removed in the past.
