Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsSo I was just in the conspiracy forum
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by DURHAM D (a host of the General Discussion forum).
and noticed that a person's thread got locked talking about the Bilderbergers. And there is also a stipulation that people are not allowed to talk about chemtrails and other such conspiracies.
But...it's...a CONSPIRACY FORUM!!!
Hmmm...wonder who is directing this directive.

Don't go overboard with the crazy talk.
Democratic Underground is not intended to be a platform for kooks and crackpots peddling paranoid fantasies with little or no basis in fact. To accommodate our more imaginative members we tolerate some limited discussion of so-called "conspiracy theories" under the following circumstances: First, those discussions are not permitted in our heavily-trafficked Main forums; and second, those discussions cannot stray too far into Crazyland (eg: chemtrails, black helicopters, 9/11 death rays or holograms, the "New World Order," the Bilderbergers, the Illuminati, the Trilateral Commission, the Freemasons, alien abduction, Bigfoot, and the like). In addition, please be aware that many conspiracy theories have roots in racism and anti-semitism, and Democratic Underground has zero tolerance for bigoted hate speech. In short, you take your chances.
