Censorship by definition is the suppression of speech, public communication or other information.
But, if first user who has admin rights decided to mark something as "dead" basically he acts same as people in Stasi Germany, filtering the continent for "greater good".
[Update] Additionally, why is sharing other people things considered ok but sharing your own things consider bad and banned?
[Update 2] I would gladly answer but I am getting message I am submitting too fast
Example:
For instance for the following account [grisanik] everything from that story [10790985], has marked as "dead", it is distopian/utopian story about two futures.

Why is that story considered as spam? On that site there is no adverts?
Tell me what is considered as on topic I just read the story about gang rape. How is that on topic with Hack news?
>>>> Comment "You are saying HN is not ok to say I made this what do you think about it? and then I made something else what do you think about that?" But it is ok with U1 "Elon Musk ..." U2 "Elon Musk ..." U3 "Elon Musk ..."
I know that Elon Musk is awesome I do not to read about him here I can go to his official site.
What is that you people make? That is what interest me... But again maybe I am wrong ...
