Topic	Is censorship of offensive speech on gamefaqs "morally" sound?
Kyuubi4269 09/05/17 1:50:40 PM #16:	darkknight109 posted... Kyuubi4269 posted... darkknight109 posted... 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. How about being suspended for 2 weeks for saying gender dysphoria is a mental illness? You know, like how it's classified? The mods censor dissenting opinions so there is reason to see it as immoral. --- RIP_Supa posted... I've seen some stuff <cite>Kyuubi4269 posted [p:886067978] in Is censors...
