I am listening, and do hear what you are saying, Fred. But banishment from
something, whether it be from a working project or a country, means that
person is being openly, or even surreptitiously, destructive of the body,
the substance, of the project or country, not merely being critical of it.
Has either of these persons, Greg or Peter, been destructive of the
substance of the Project: the body of the Encyclopedia? And could we please
stop the disingenuousness of calling what is clearly censorship,
"moderation"?
And, when someone's constant (and seemingly only) answer to anyone who
doesn't agree with them is to call them a name - like "troll", the
accusation should bounce right back to the accuser. In psychology it's
called "projection".
