whats happened to the western freedom of speech??

Question

questions and answers getting deleted for no reason, is this what europieans are like?

Answer 1

Yes, this y!q/a is what EU and US are like:

No freedom of speech.

No human rights.

Answer 2

I suspect you have not read the community guidelines.

I've had a couple answers removed myself, although I was trying hard not to upset anyone, and certainly didn't think I was going to upset anyone, I was expressing an opinion.

However, someone was upset with my answer, and even though it was chosen as a best answer by the asker, the question and answer were both removed.

If you do wonder about this click on the link below.

Remember, Yahoo is a global business and doesn't want to upset people. If you see something that upsets you, report it.

If you want true freedom of speech, you need to come back about 20 years ago, and go to Hyde Park in London, UK with a soap box. You used to be able to say anything you wanted, as long as you were there and on a soapbox.

I fear those days are long gone. The western world has gone politically correct in some places and fundamentalist in others.

Answer 3

Hi Asuman,
Unfortunately, there is no freedom of speech in Yahoo.
And then I believe, Yahoo did not to take an interest with writing, too much.
Maybe, just reading and says , 'Yes, right' and 'Delete it'
Unfortunately this is right.
I am asking different question after my answer deleted, but again taking some answer.
'Like a speaking with the Wall'

Kind Regards

PS. I am agree with Mrs. T
Morticia(Sinem), if you are reading,
I think, Your answers and Your question can be remove, well maybe this answer also :)

Answer 4

I call it hypocrisy at its best.
I could write lots of things on this, but I just don't feel like really. Because the freedom of speech is a concept only the western world knows about and manipulates however they[westerners] want.

Answer 5

We can no longer say what we think or feel because we might offend someone. You can be the most gawd awful, repulsive, offensive CHUD on earth and say or do any nasty thing you want and the ACLU and a million attorneys will support you, but if you say anything that reeks of common sense, truth, reality, normalcy, and that same CHUD disagrees with you, he will take you to court for violating his civil rights.
Blame it on an increasingly smaller and smaller world with more and more people of different backgrounds having to share a smaller and smaller piece of the pie; blame it on hypersensitivity and thin skin; blame it on paranoia that won't allow you to say what you wish. It's a different time we live in.

Answer 6

i think e1 in power is like that. Freedom of speech in the modern world is the chunk of cheese on a mouse trap.

If you really believe in it, your gonna get f*cked up.

Freedom is an illusion people bring up to control the masses. and i don't think humans will be satisfied with total freedom anyway.

Answer 7

No free speech on Yahoo

Answer 8

did you not know the due to the fact that western people's points of view and belief's may offend those who are of different ethnic or religious background hence no more freedom of speech.

Answer 9

Saddam refused to conform with one million UN decision, & the individuals invade his us of a.Israel has in no way complied with any of numerous UN Resolutions,& wager what?it form of feels that international regulation would not prepare to the Israelis.

Answer 10

When someone criticizes Israeli attacks on Palestinians and Libanese, Yahoo delete immediately.

But when someone criticizes Muslims,Arabs and Turks, Yahoo doesn't delete it.

I don't understand this double standart.

Answer 11

Let's stay one minute quiet in the memory of freedom of speech....
