Answer 1

How is Yahoo considered a Western state? It is a private organization that runs it the way it works best for them.

Answer 2

Freedom of speech is the freedom to say, publish, believe or think anything you like - no matter how offensive - that does not incite hatred or violence, or be a direct danger to public safety (for instance shouting fire in a crowded theatre for example).

Freedom of action is ENTIRELY different - that is what exists in an anarchy, people may do anything they like. Freedom of action exists to a certain extent in democracy, but it would include being able to murder anyone you like and not be punished, to sell drugs to children - anything you wanted. Most democracies operate a laissez-faire on freedom of action, you can do pretty much anything you like within reason.

Answer 3

You are most likely being deleted by other participants and not Yahoo. I have seen your questions and answers for a long time, and never saw a reason for Yahoo to delete you. There are those here who will delete you for saying something they do not like, a very unfortunate feature of Yahoo. It is one thing to report someone for bad behavior, but quite another to have the power to remove someone from Yahoo by pushing the delete button many times. I sincerely hope Yahoo fixes this flaw, for they are the only ones with the authority to remove someone, and yet many are removed without their knowledge. Welcome back.

Answer 4

Freedom of speech is when any person of any race can say what they want . Unless you are Caucasian.

Answer 5

the ability to say things that go against the status quo.
