Come on... it was already in the negatives - it would just take a little nudge to push it below the threshold of anyone who doesn't want to see bad comments. If it doesn't contain illegal/dangerous material, a comment should not be deleted.

While it was clearly propaganda, the author did seem to believe it was to some extent on-topic.

Crossed the line into spam IMO, but if anyone agrees with thomblake they can vote me down further and I'll unban the comment and you can downvote it.

Okay, comment's back. We need two more downvotes to make it disappear for most users, so get minusy.
