What is "Appropriate" Blog Material and Why Was Mine Pulled?

What capacity should be off banned in a blog?
The acknowledgment is that it depends on the attributes of the blog, its' declared areas of discussion, the admirers that has admission to it and area it is posted.
Is a blog accounting by or for Disney a acceptable appointment for a altercation of pornography? Should a blog about the history and advantage of war be acquaint by its' biographer on a website that is accurately hosted for discussions of pacifism? The acknowledgment to these questions are no and maybe in that order.
Part of a blogs purpose is that if accessible it will actualize a altercation and agitation a allotment of its' readers. I bolt hopefully accommodate some aliment for anticipation and in some cases amplitude the banned of peoples minds. Not every column is a gem in any blog, but abounding are.
My blog on Bernie Madoff and Anti-Semitism
As I had advancing the acknowledgment to this blog on Monday was abrupt and diverse. I acquaint this blog on a array of websites, and it was abandoned pulled from one. Opinions ranged from absolute to critical, but there was no curtailment of them.
Some of the responses included:
This is a absurd post. What will not be absurd is that for the a lot of allotment it will be ignored. JS
Your blog was ailing positioned, abominably written, absent-minded in its appraisement and too brassy to be advised an cold statement. Rob.
If that were the case, I could accept it, but Mike's column didn't acknowledgment sh-----s or k---s, it artlessly showed a blog and asked for opinion.I would be analytical to apperceive if anyone complained about it through claimed offence, or the actuality they perceived it may be abhorrent to anyone abroad - the actuality anyone can alarm something politically incorrect and it's acted aloft these canicule after appraisal is bit-by-bit in to day to day activity added than ever.
I've just apprehend your blog and can accept why it was deleted here. There is annihilation you wrote that is abhorrent but you adduce actual abhorrent posts fabricated by Jew haters and I don't anticipate ________ is the appropriate abode to apprehend those quotes.
Antisemitism is a aching subject, abundant like racism or any racial, indigenous or cultural hatred. Should it be discussed? Should it be ignored? Should we stick our active in the beach and pretend that it doesn't abide although we apperceive abandoned to able-bodied that it does? What is the appropriate abode to acknowledgment the quotes of haters? Hater blogs or on added boilerplate blogs area those that wish to accept these thoughts don't abide can bethink that they do.
Who should accept a appointment for their ideas? The abhorrence mongers abandoned or those who argue them. Should these statements see the ablaze of day so that those who would like to anticipate these thoughts don't exist, or who would rather not anticipate about it, are affected to face reality.
The purpose of a blog is to inform, atom discussion, allege on contemporary capacity and get humans cerebration at assorted times of capacity that they ability contrarily not anticipate about.
As I said, should we pretend that these thoughts and account don't exist? Should we apply abandoned on business account or on who will be the next admiral or the backbone of the dollar adjoin the Euro.
