There is a group mindset at Digg that demonstrates why those on the right believe that the left don’t like free speech unless it’s their speech. At Digg they’re deliberately burying articles they don’t agree with politically. Recently, Charles of Little Green Footballs added a Digg feature to his blog but every time the post makes it to the popular page it gets buried (they even reported his post complaining about it as “inaccurate” and it now has a warning label). They even buried a post that suggests that those who bury posts should be listed (now, only those who Digg a post are listed).
Here’s an interesting article about the influence of the users of these types of sites.
BTW, take this presidential poll. It really demonstrates how this site is dominated by the left, Obama has a huge lead. Obama is the perfect candidate for the left, he’s style over substance. Rhetoric over record. He brings no experience to the table and yet he has plenty of solutions to our domestic problems. Two years in the Senate and he’s ready to be president? How can we trust our war on terror to him? What is his position on that? I bet it’s negotiation.
