I agree with most of what you said. I'm not sure about the conservative/liberal right/left bent, though, have heard of that before and I'm open minded to it. I agree, they should have the ban list public so we can know. And I also have to wonder what event triggered them to suddenly ban that image, I doubt it was me like you said and more automated... But, I'm sure SOMETHING triggered them to suddenly ban that image and I wonder what it was.
