[Seattle-editorial] more newswire nonsense BLOCK CONCERN

[anarch3m]

A login could go a long way to increasing the presspass holding pool.  As always, I would like to see a different section for these non anonymous and hardworkers (no reposts- just straight journalism) so they have some concrete reward in the work living a longer shelf life.

Oh, outreach the communities and set up a way to get them posted without taking so much of MY TIME and that of I'm sure, some others here.  Teach them to post, not submit.  Let it be so...please please please

I maintain a BLOCK per "green nazis" being hidden.  perhaps some have issues with this topic.  I am not alone in crusading this into a wider consciousness and can live with the indeterminance of ferriting out the authors "real intent."  It needs light.

I object to hiding the "rant" per current policy, but don't block, as I would like a policy that prohibits such rantings.  

till then.
