Sensitive Claude's Journal: Slashdot Moderators are Insensitive!

All I'm trying to do is make slashdot a bit more sensitive, and what do I get? Moderated as a troll, that's what.

Oh sure, I get modded as Funny, but that doesn't help my karma. I've only made 7 posts so far and already I have bad karma. What in the world am I going to tell my sensei now?

Thank you.

Of course, all of this is moot since the Slashdot editors are so unwilling to listen
