Not quite accurate.  

We are now being censored not just by the G&M moderator (which I think is totally appropriate) but by each other.  I think this is offensive because (1) I'm a paying subscriber and it's not my place to do the paper's work and (2) anyone who disagrees with my position can call it 'uncivil' and get it removed.  This has happened to me and I can assure you I used no bad language, was diplomatic and careful about how I presented my opinion.  

Ultimately though you're right: my opinion isn't that important, so I'm not going get my knickers too much into a twist over it.  But I certainly don't like or approve of the new approach to the G&M's commenting board.
