USA Africa Dialogue Series - For The Attention Of The Moderator

Moderator Sir,

I have been wondering how some posts with expressions that fall far below the basic standard of decency in public discourse usually make it past the moderator's "hammer" in this tightly moderated forum. It could not have been a case of these expressions escaping the moderator's attention because they appear regularly, especially in "literary criticisms".

Instead of the moderator's 'hammer" descending on whole topics, I suggest that the "hammer" should rather descend on posts with expressions like; "that body of thugs with PhDs" (reference to University lecturers in Nigeria).

We can disagree and make our points without using expressions like the above.

Be well sir,

CAO.
