I know no one will read this, but...you people really, really **** me off! You rejected my comment that factually covered the real story about what happened last night in Portland. At the end I suggested that ANTIFA needs to be destroyed. You bastards deleted my post. Yet you allow idiots to call me a fascist, a bigot, a racist and an ignorant Trumpian Republican and you do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! So yes, I am angry...very angry! I can only hope that the government finally clamps down on your bias so firmly that fake operations like Huffington Post and Yahoo News finally go away for ever! To **** with all of you!

It's only been two months since the destructive riots started in Portland Oregon, and finally AOL ran a mostly straight up story about the riots. ONE GLARING OMISSION: There has been NO CONDEMNATION FROM AOL AND THE REST OF THE LIBERAL PRESS FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF BUSINESSES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY! I CHALLENGE AOL TO RUN PICTURES OF THE STORE FRONTS IN DOWNTOWN PORTLAND THAT HAVE BEEN DESTROYED BY THE UNLAWFUL RIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And give us some stats on people moving out of the big cities!

For the last few months, every comment I have tried to post on AOL articles has been rejected. Every time. Even the nicest or most neutral of comments. I have been an AOL member for decades and find this reprehensible. I need this to be corrected. I tried using live chat and they say they cannot help. Who does this request go to then? How do I get this rectified??

Start using your guidelines against people who are disrespectful and make no logical sense when posting. How does someone with the name TRUMPTURDS make it past your censors????????????

Stop stepping on our 1st Amendment Rights by primarily censuring Trump supporters in far higher numbers than Liberal Lefties get censured & hire reviewers that know what "offensive" means. I made a post similar to this one to complain that the sentiments of a particular poster were highly offensive & my response to him, which had no foul language or terroristic threats, got censured. His remained up. In the post I made to complain about the discriminatory behavior I typed exactly what he had said & I got kicked off this site for an ? # of days. And needless to say, that one didn't get posted either, got censured while his STILL remained up. I guess telling someone (me) that "If I would change my dirty feminine hygiene product I would feel better" is only offensive if it's repeated word for word by a Trump Supporter. So, even though I took the time to write it this time in un-offensive language instead of quoting him, I seriously doubt that this will be posted either. And that's OK because I feel so much better for getting this off my chest.

On article comments... I can type , "I like pizza"... and I'm told that my comment violates "community guidelines". What the heck is going on there?

Your guidelines do not make sense. Especially when I have been censored 2 today and did not abuse your guidelines!!

I find it very interesting as to how some commentary is acceptable while other comments are not. This comment was not removed. I find it very demeaning and extremely racist. "A spook is a good choice here for VP. Purely strategic to pick up tired Joe and relate to the moolies."

AOL is so desperate for positive "THUMB COUNTS" on their comments that they are changing the counts to suit their sick Socialists agenda.
If it's a TRUMP positive comment and you check "THUMBS UP" , it increases the "THUMBS DOWN" count to NEGATIVE.
Pathetic!! TRUMP 2020 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep up the great work of censoring all my comments and puking your Socialist comments. You still will not win.
Pathetic !

I am unable to comment on any articles.
This has been an ongoing problem for over a year and I need it to be resolved.
Today when I tried liking or disliking any comment at the end of an article AOL immediately logs me off, I tried it several times and it is becoming frustrating.
I am a 20 year loyal customer of AOL and If this issue cannot be fixed I will leave AOL.
Please repair this ISSUE... -

Lots of crass bordering on crude comments about Harris and Biden on here yet when I get a little adamant I get the community standards warning.

Let all people be able to comment on news articles. Stop the B.S. and do the right thing. I guess AOL don't care about you

Open discussion is important to America's democracy. If we only allow the ideas and beliefs of only a certain group that is not democratic. We might as well be in a dictatorship. There will always be some who don't like a post because they don't agree. That doesn't mean they should be allowed to censure it by reporting it. Stop censuring the discussion.
