Intellectual dishonesty.

[I_Ryan]

I can’t directly move something from the main forum to the member issues “subforum”, so I instead have to re-post it. Neoclassical posted the following in the main forum:

@Neoclassical

A moderator has privately claimed that I am guilty of “intellectual dishonesty.” Can someone prove that I have been intentionally deceitful?

I definitely disagree with most of you. And, I’ll even acknowledge that I’ve been playfully misanthropic (although, I just would’ve hoped for a less uptight audience).

But dishonest? That kind of hurt. Even replying as often as I can (and doing it more today than anyone else), I can’t answer every single person or criticism. I am trying my best, and I have been very forthright (even conceding that I don’t have a rock-solid macroeconomic explanation for widescale downturns).

liberty student, I believe you are the one being dishonest.

P.S. Seriously, guys, censorship on a forum dedicated to people like Mises? I know “moderation” means you can be selective, but I would assume we should err on the side of “freedom of speech,” unless someone is spamming or trolling rather than engaging in argument.

Has he, in fact, been censored?

What thread is being referred too? And moreover, did the moderator make the “intellectually dishonest” claim only in private?

@Dondoolee

What thread is being referred too?

Here is the original thread, Intellectual dishonesty. if that is what you are asking for.

I don’t get it though, was it just one private comment on intellectual dishonesty? Was there censorship on the forum that is being objected to? If this is a sole message about a PM (and I am not saying it is, as I am a bit confused) that was just made public by Neoclassical, I see this as a private issue between two people.
