Equating internet moderations to censorship is a bit like calling someone who isn't a vegetarian a mass murderer

Saying censorship is beating people in to submission if not murdering is like saying assault is only when you're put in intensive care.

If you want to talk about censorship as some great evil, though, you need to use the term only when it is actually being used for evil. Crying about how the nasty admins won't let you post a racist meme just devalues the whole phrase and makes actually damaging forms of censorship sound like more whining instead of something to actually be alarmed about.

Kill 100 men: You are a hero. Kill 10,000 men, you are a conqueror!
