Censorship on BitChute/Disqus

My more thoughtful and informative comments, on friendly channels on BitChute, are getting deleted, minutes or hours after I post them. On my un-linked Disqus account, the deleted comments appear labelled "Detected as spam"-- obviously a ruse. Informative discussion is thus prevented, while trolls with nasty comments and images are given free reign here. That is, perhaps, the intention? If BitChute wants to stand for free speech, it must remove whoever is doing the deletions, or give content creators the option to overrule such diktats and moderate their own comments. That would ensure that each side of a debate can fairly present its case.

It is not censorship when each side of a debate can present its case on the same platform and fairly compete for an audience. If a video uploader decided to delete comments merely because they rebut his claims, he would be ridiculed and his claims could still be addressed on opponents' videos and comments. It is understood that spam, obscenity, and personal attacks will be a problem on an open platform and must be dealt with. No one wants such garbage, and content creators who opt for self-moderation would be expected to manage it.
