But MyLeftWing is no longer worth the trouble. The site crashed some time ago as its daily visit numbers went below a thousand. So embarrassing that MSOC pulled the site meter. At least European Tribune sustains two thousand daily visitors, and Booman Tribune, five thousand. Also you might consider Open Left where you can post single headlines on its Quick Hits, or full fledged diaries in its diary section. It has over 12 thousand daily visitors.
Still, if you can survive on DKos, it has right now just over 600 thousand daily visitors.
I was disappeared from Daily Kos after that one diary. I'll return as fairleft4 or similar and be disappeared again. Repeatedly returning and being disappeared after rough and tumble discussion is good, at least, to remind some of those 600K readers of the anti-democratic truth (especially on the I/P issue) of the site they read and support. fairleft
I've also had poor response at Booman from time to time, but it has generally been good. Diaries at Open Left are poorly attended to. Restrict your self to a single source and use the Quick Hits. They are usually much better attended to. MyDD has self-destructed while trying to revamp the site programming. It's a mess. Also they have a diary listing of only the last five, and they are usually off the front page in a matter of hours.
Booman Tribune and Open Left are not subject to censorship in the IP area. On the other hand, if you want to return to Daily Kos, you might take up a different blogname. Your diaries will otherwise be attacked for who you are rather than its substance. There is also a suspicion that I am still there and have never left. There are many ways to ploy the internet, but I'm not saying. It takes a real personality transformation, which I am good at, given that I am the sockpuppet king at Daily Kos. Fuck Kos. He deserves every bit of it.
I like not playing the Dkos whack a mole game; not playing makes explicit what hypocritical brown shirts the players are. And, I want the 'brand' fairleft to be recognized and followed, for those who appreciate my take (and I always have an off-site link in my sig). Anyway, like you say, there are many ways to deal with the censorship phenomenon, and I've chosen mine.
When my name is fairleft2 (0 / 0) doesn't that contradict the meaning of 'sockpuppet'? And then there's my signature, to be even less 'sockpuppetty'. I'm among the many disappeared for our leftist opinions, allowed to come back here briefly, till this point of view is censored again. fairleft (linking to http://pffugeecamp.com/user/fairleft) by fairleft2 on Tue Feb 16, 2010 at 02:52:23 PM PST

But don't ignore the smaller blogs, like Euro Trib, Boomans, and even Open Left. Stay away from Democratic Underground. The place is censored, no IP on the front page, and there is a censored and very biased forum on it, one of about thirty. They have pretty much buried IP in the tombs, and that's the way they like it, I believe. Docudharma is extremely small and like MyLeftWing, not worth the trouble.
