It's perfectly obvious that it hasn't been censored. It's been converted from a clickable link to one that you have to copy and paste in order to view it.

I request (French: "demander") an explanation and motivations for said edit.

Really? On what evidence do you base this fact?Rus wrote:Only it's not an opinion. It's a fact.
Here is the list of "experts" who provided the opinions quoted in my post:Rus wrote:"According to 'experts'". Who the heck is "an expert"?
(Oh, I only quoted the most notable objections to the video, didn't bother with things like the fact that a properly performed procedure takes 1/3rd as long as implied in the video, or that at that stage of development, no forceps or other tools are necessary.)Sally Faith Dorfman, MD

Non-propaganda is factual information devoid of emotive content, speculation or supposition.Propaganda is a form of communication aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position.
Naturally. Because you're of the opinion that only what you believe is fact.Rus wrote:If I think something to be true, and not merely "my opinion", then look out. We will disagree on a cardinal level about what is "opinion" and what is "fact".
If you can convince me that I'm not alive, then you can do whatever you want with me. I don't however think that it would be difficult to dispute however. (Unless you're a solipsist.)Rus wrote:I can easily suggest that it is only your "opinion" that you are alive, and by your lights, it would be difficult to dispute an opinion to the contrary. If I can establish that you are not alive (to the satisfaction of certain "experts"), and undercut all of your supposed "rights" (wherever those are derived from and on what basis they are claimed), then I guess I could do whatever I wanted with you.
By all means lay out the argument against me being alive. I'd be interested to hear it.
