Digg-gate has taken off and has shown how corrupt a social site can become. The self deemed patriots of the Digg Patriots group that censored the Digg.com social news site, eradicated any, if not all left wing news or opinion from the upcoming lists.
This has become the focus of the Internet as their defenders explain why cheating is appropriate because the Digg site is “left leaning” therefore it’s justified to take the actions of those who have stifled the massive amounts of Digg users who do not agree with their views
.
This scandal has swept through the Internet, and now, The Young Turks discuss the patriots actions and who they hate and how they did it.

On a side note, why are almost all of their accounts still active? Defenders of the Patriots claim there is no evidence. The enormous amount of evidence obtained is staggering. This will come out Patriots. Take my word at that. Why is their ringleader’s account still active? Anyone? Why is this account still active or this one or this one or any of them? Why is ChronicColonic’s? He wrote a guide on, “How To Bury Excellently.”
By no longer having an active bury feature, this will not solve this staggering problem. We were used. Digg Support was used as they reported users en mass daily making their lives hell. The entire Digg community suffered. So, what’s the hangup? Get the active participants out!
