Observe that one of my previous replies to you have been silently deleted.
The reason you don't see Vlad's arguments is that you don't hang out in the kind of forums where people such as Vlad are allowed to plainly state their arguments.
Every time but one that I've seen a post deleted on LW, it has been because of the medium, not the message.
That is, the way the message was written was counter to discussion - for example, it contained a direct insult. (Calling someone a liar is pretty much never going to foster healthy discussion.) This happens for both controversial and uncontroversial opinions.
If you'd like, feel free to PM me any post you've made in this thread which has been deleted, or the approximate content thereof, and I can post it either as a direct quote or, if you'd prefer, rephrased in such a way that I think the composition of the post does not warrant deletion, so that we can test whether it's the message itself or merely the manner you express it which has been warranting deletion.
