Stop deleting comments that don't break the rules without specifying what rule is being broken. Yahoo is censoring free speech.
Stop deleting comments that "break the rules" without specifying what rule is being broken. Yahoo is censoring free speech because it doesn't align with their political views.

Yahoo is a left wing rag website. I have comments rejected all the time such as the following: "What planet are you living on? The entire Democrat party is "fringe" with no common sense, reason, morality, or responsibility. THAT is the problem." This is hardly a comment that is inappropriate...unless you are a Democrat. Yahoo rejects the comment "MAGA!". You have to write like a 6 year old to get past the ridiculously sensitive censorship algorithm.

It appears that other posters can make unwarranted accusations in order to silence those who have contrary opinions and those who post facts that support those contrary opinions.

Yahoo has deleted several years of my posts. If an actual human moderator reviewed my posts and appeals there is no way they would be deemed to violate community standards. The appeals process is disingenuous as my appeals are instantly rejected.

for over 6 months yahoo has been 'rejecting' ALL of my comments. It's done absolutely NO good to report nor open tickets. I'm tired of the ******** autobot replies to every single ticket I open. None of the customer relations representatives have actually 'helped' me by fixing this issue. No matter what my comment is, Every Single Comment is "Rejected" with prejudice

Everything I post gets rejected a few seconds later. When I "appeal", the appeal comes back a few seconds later as rejected. If my account is permanently blocked or something they could at least send me an email telling me so.

Same has happened to me. Doesn't matter what I post. I could say "hello" and it gets rejected. It's CENSORSHIP plain and simple. I've made comments that do not go against the community standards, but go against Yahoo's liberal censors so I'm banished. PATHETIC!

What is wrong with this comment/question,...... "I have NSCLC in it's 2nd remission and I also have COPD. The flu could even turn fatal for me, so how should I avoid this?"

the word "oaf" "dastardly" "Ham-fisted" and "verbal kung fu" seemingly violate Openweb & yahoo community guidelines. ...
these are very common words, normal, non offensive words, yet seemingly trigger the A.I. bots "Certain parts of your comment may include inappropriate language. Please revise to take part in the conversation." warning.
mind you the whole and full comments where...quote me:
"a no2 pencil... just as dastardly."
"that sign, seems ham-fisted."
"if you swore an oath, don't be an oaf."
"alright enough verbal kung fu".all those comments where blocked / rejected, or until figured out what may have wrongly triggered your bots to block my comment.
i cannot help but feel a great aversion
to using the yahoo news and comment features, if such common, non offensive words and sentences are forbidden to be used.thank you

I have posted several comments that do no violate any policies and all of the have been blocked. Regardless of being is support of or against.
This is pure censorship.Block comments for example
Democrat policies are destroying our country slowly and steadily.hey always vote them back in. Why would they learn their lesson
if we can put them to work with safe housing, they can be a productive community member
this is a joke right.. this is total censorship
I hear they have space available in Martha's Vineyard
yahoo is blocking all kinds of comments today. wow
so basically no comment is being approved here!
How are any of these against community guidelines, but they are blocked.

Well, well, well. Got sick of Yahoo banning me because I don't support Trump, Desantis or the Republican party. So I put up a post about which presidents created national deficits and which did not. And Bingo, that seems to be the final straw; yahoo had challenged me so many times I asked them to explain the errors in my posts. So now I am totally banned. Seems you can support the liars and stay friendly with yahoo, if you want integrity in your posts, be banned by yahoo. Yahoo is hiding another rep lie right now (immigrant housing in NYC-hotel never had any vets staying there) but that is ok because it is a Republican headline. Care to respond Yahoo. Would love to hear from you, you have my e mail.

I'm at a loss to undertsand why any and all comments i was making are being Dropped for apparently not following Yahoo rules! Never an explaination just a "Sorry about my bad luck". Even if it was a smiley emoji. Now there is a "view comments" which then goes completely blank when clicked on. WTF Yahoo? The useless writers you emply can cuss like a sailor in their written by a 2nd grader stories but you employ stalinistic policies to commentors. Ya wanna explain this. Didn't think so... If I've been banned, How about friendly reach around to let me know why You're sensoring my First amendment rights as I've seen far worse than I ever said get trhough.

I noticed that Yahoo does not have the courage to respond to any of these posts....wonder why? Kind of like the keyboard warrior who is all tough when typing, but cowers in the corner when confronted with the truth.
