There are sites with "fake comments" like the NY Times - you can comment there, but nobody will see what you write. You can check by a 2nd browser in incognito mode that your comment is impossible to find. This happens on youtube as well.

Interesting. Are you sure it's not just a temporary thing, and that the comment actually shows up later? I know last year a YT comment of mine was visible the next day on a different computer where I wasn't signed in.

I can think of a couple reasons for a delay:
- Approval queues, either human review, or automated reviews that may have a queue, possibly even intentionally delayed. i.e. I've heard when you upload a youtube video, that while the video appears pretty quickly to web visitors, the auto generated CC text sometimes takes minutes to hours to appear. So for comments, instead of showing you a comment placeholder, they may just display the comment back to the orig poster until a decision is made, in which case the comment becomes visible to other users, or gets deleted.
- Synchronization between their numerous app and db servers. Many high scale systems accept eventual consistency in exchange for higher performance or other benefits. i.e. it's common to make a web visitor "sticky" to a certain application server, so if they have 10 web servers to spread load, they choose a single low-load server on your first request, and then associate you with that server for the duration of your session. Sometimes they set a cookie to store which server they want you to use (or they use your ssl session id), and then their front end routers/proxies will read that cookie id on future requests and route you to the right backend infrastructure. This way, they don't need to keep all servers in completely live sync, because they can just store session-level data on your particular node since all your requests will be routed to that node. Only certain data needs to be sync'd to other servers with high priority, which is better than making all data be sync'd with the same priority.

Approval queues might even be account specific, so only certain accounts are flagged and/or exceed some "dangerous speech" threshold where they do reviews.

It could just be a headfake tho. In 2022 I wouldn't be surprised if it was.

Throw in the short but sweet "Police Squad" series as well.

Maybe she's not so bad. She creates an excellent argument for not allowing unlimited, unmonitored immigration:

Zucker brothers. I'd recommend it, I'd put it up there with Blazing Saddles.

lol!

Bet he issues a formal apology, possibly with tears, to show how "hurt" he was by the thought that his callous and reckless comment caused pain in our treasured sensitive snowflakes.
