The postings. to uk.misc newsgroup generated a very defensive reaction from
Usenet readers in the UK. So much so, that. they tried strenuously to
suppress what. was being said, both by breaking the rules of netiquette in
their responses on the forum, and directly by action to revoke. the account
from. which the postings were issued.
Yet the postings were within the normal boundaries of. behaviour for
uk.misc, and other less partisan spectators did not see justice. in the
censorship which was effected, as the following. excerpt shows;

:>It does seem that the. frequency and the size of his posts are

:>his postmaster were to act in this instance,. it would raise troubling

The inescapable conclusion of the censorship effected on the. uk.*
newsgroups is that the British are. intent on their wrongdoing remaining
concealed, and therefore seek to subvert and suppress freedom. of speech,
not only in their own country where the media shows xenophobic bias. and
bile against all perceived enemies within and. without, but also in other
countries which have their own statutes to guarantee the basic. human right
of. free speech.
It is absolutely necessary to bring their hate campaign out into the. open
where it can be placed under scrutiny and. the harassers seen for what they
are. That is the only way of making it. impossible for the security services
to carry it out. There is a. wider dimension, though. Xenophobia as
demonstrated by. British people and institutions over the last few years
belongs to the same stable as racial hatred. In one case,. two youths on a
Tube train made that racism explicit by referring to their. victim as a
"soft toy, not. up to British Standards". Doubtless others victimize partly
on the basis of race (isn’t it odd that they chose to. torment someone who
is not ethnically. English?) while expressing their abuse in terms of
another. genetic attribute, namely mental illness. All xenophobia on a
genetic basis is wrong, but while racial insults. are illegal, abusing the
mentally ill is neither against the law nor subject to. similar condemnation
when. it is exposed.

when they say no, proclaim triumphantly to the world that "there isn't
a slave girl in Chinatown." These officers deceive others by these
falsehoods, but they know too well the conditions to be themselves
deceived.
When certain Chinese girls appeared before a committee appointed to
investigate conditions at San Francisco, the members of the committee
were put under promise not to divulge their names or stories, as
"their lives would not be safe for five years to come," if the
brothel-keepers and their former owners knew that they had informed
against them. It is a little difficult to describe the various secret
societies of Chinatown in full, but for practical purposes and as
relates to the welfare of Chinese women, it may be said that the
secret society, or tong, is a sort of mutual benefit society and has
generally a very commendable sort of name; but it exists to divide the
profits of the trade in women, among other villainies. When anyone
gives any evidence against such a society, or informs a rescue worker
where a girl will be found who desires her liberty, then some one from
the tong that has a special interest in the profits of that girl's
slavery, deposits a sum of money in a place mutually arranged for, and
the highbinder society undertakes for the sum paid to see that the
informer is assassinated within twenty-four hours. That is the length
of time usually c
