Or... it's easier to censor and call it 're-examining our culture'. These are not mutually exclusive things believe it or not.

Uh, can you state where the censorship in this is coming from? Just curious.

'Mostly because it's way, way easier to call censorship and pretending there's no problem instead of reexamining our culture.'

Just commenting on your comment, not the thread. Yes, I realise the thread is not advocating censorship per se. The comment I was initially responding to, though, ventures into '1984' territory.

Yeah, but the point is that there's no censorship being done, which was @Vaalingrade 's point: people are just saying "CENSORSHIP" when there's literally none being suggested.

Sorry for being so quick with the replies. I'm a posting-editing person, too.

The Vaalingrade comment.

@Justice and Rule In other words (purposely not editing my comment...), some of the worst moments in history arose from the idea that 'censorship is okay because X'. Editing thoughts is not okay, as disagreeable as thoughts we oppose are. There are cleaner ways of dealing with unacceptable behaviours.

We can't be better because some people did bad things tangentally related to the subject at hand.

Please reform that in the form of an understandable sentence...

I'm not sure I agree, but also please don't change your posting style because of me. I'll try to be less-online and enjoy finally playing this Spider-Man game on my inadvertent day off.
