So about half an hour ago I made a post arguing for the previous contest to be rated, at least for those with positive deltas. Whether you agree or not, it's not a particularly extreme opinion, yet my blog post was removed from codeforces within minutes. This is rather hypocritical action from a platform that very strongly supports durov on the basis of free speech, yet at even just a suggestion from a random pupil they go straight to deleting posts. Without getting too political, I think we can all agree that there is worse stuff on Telegram than disagreeing with making a contest unrated. I doubt this post will even be up for a couple of minutes, but regardless, codeforces admin should have significantly better ways of resolving issues than silencing those that even slightly disagree on relatively meaningless issues.

Edit: This was relegated to draft status randomly about 10 minutes ago. I reposted shortly after and the upvotes/comments are unchanged but it was most definitely removed from top prior to me reposting it.
