Does anyone else hate Yahoo as much as I do?

Not allowing people to leave comments on posts is ludicrous. I wish I didn't have decades of emails saved on there. If one can eloquently express their view without name calling or slander, then let them comment. Here's what got me kicked out today. It was a response to another reply regarding T-Mobile's pending termination of non-vaccinated employees. Apparently Fox got behind T-Mobile for this, which I found odd to say the least.


Your reply on T-Mobile to terminate corporate employees who aren't vaccinated by April -memo has been rejected as it contains content that is in breach of our community guidelines.

Seems incredibly hypocritical of Fox (referenced in another person's comment) given their initial stand that the necessity for vaccinations were way out of line, some of whom even suggested the virus was fake. I've never gotten a Covid shot. I had Covid, exercised vigorously throughout the five days it really hit me hard, survived it (still getting my sense of taste back though, the only long term repercussion that I've experienced), but will never get a flu shot. To begin with, this is NOT a vaccine, it's an immunization. That "vax" doesn't stop anything. I know folks (my dad being one) who HAD both shots and STILL got sick. In fact, it was him that made me sick as he had it before I did. I lead a very healthy lifestyle via diet and vigorous exercise. I've gotten very sick after I've taken flu shots as well at tetanus shots. At 57, I have only had two flu shots, 1977 or so and 1980-ish. The last time I had the flu was 2013. I was in the hospital for long term stays the last two times I had tetanus shots (TBI 1999, Stroke/Cancer 2011) so I was already bedridden. As a former test subject for Parke-Davis/Warner Lambert in the 1980's, I learned that those clinical trials are the only way to test longevity and benefit of such drugs. Covid is serious, but vaccinating people who may respond negatively to it will do far more damage to a healthy population.

If you don’t want to get similar emails in the future, you can opt out here.
Yahoo comments are powered by OpenWeb


I didn't swear, name call and I spoke from personal experience, not opinion. What more can I do to be valid?

Yahoo is just not a very well run company, and it wouldn't be surprising if it just had a really poorly thought out moderation system that was vulnerable to manipulation.

I actually thought Y! had discontinued comments because it was usually just pure mental filth?
 
I have noticed the inability to leave comments. Pretty shitty because Yahoo posts random editorial pieces that are so biassed and or incorrect but without comments being allowed, the information comes across as truth. Not good.
 
Well, I just destroyed my Pixel due to my ongoing hatred of Google, GoogleFi, and everything that starts with Goo.

Does that equate to your hatred of Yahoo?
 
I have never in my life left a, "Comment" on an online news article.

The idea of it is weird to me. What type of newspapers did you grow up reading?

Mine never let me talk back to them.

:dunno
 
I don't mind comments being turned off. News article comments sections are as bad as twitter.

So we get all of your attention?

The longer I'm alive the less I think of letters to the editor in general, so comments are about the same.

Dr. Rick says nobody cares.
 
At least with letter to the editor, you have to use your real name and more newspapers will confirm your identity. Anonymous comment sections are garbage.

LOL, not exactly.

I have participated in other forums over the years since the 90's and have a very light presence on social media (a BARFette tricked me into starting a facebook account like 14 years ago). Used a fair amount of IRC back in the day and have a Discord account I use regularly today with personal contacts, but I certainly don't try to post my opinions to the general public on a news site.

You will notice I also very rarely START new threads.

Rule #1 - Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked.

:teeth

I was just messing with you dude
 
Yahoo has always sucked but they got bought out by Verizon a few years ago and then sold again to some investment firm.

Anyway, if T-Mobile wants to make vaccination against COVID a condition of employment that's their prerogative.

OP's comment is ignorant at best. Which is why media outlets are trying to restrict the spread of false information about vaccines.
 
Screw what covid does to all those who don’t live a healthy life. Is that the gist of the comment the OP is raging to make?
 
I miss Brokenlink and HH tag teaming in the SFGate comments. Ken M style shenanigans :laughing
