Censorship describes a variety of processes formal and informal, overt and covert, conscious and unconscious, by which restrictions are imposed on the collection, display, dissemination, and exchange of information, opinions, ideas and imaginative expression. Censorship is an instrument to assist in the attainment, preservation or continuance of somebodys power, whether exercised by an individual, an institution or a state. It is as Michael Scammell, one of the founders of Index on Censorship has put it the extension of physical power into the realm of the mind and the spirit. - Flemming Rose --- "Some things have to be believed to be seen." - Ralph Hodgson ...

The hypocrisy is just wild When its the NFL/Kaepernick or the MLB moving the all star game out of Georgia, its Patriots standing up for america when its Spotify/Rogan or the lady from the Mandalorian, its left wing fascists shutting down free speech --- Black In America https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/1527-black-in-america ...

Self-censorship is driven by fear. It is closely connected to censorship and intimidation of the public space. When people stop fearing for the consequences of what they say dictatorships fall. Fear is often a very legitimate feeling, but it comes at a price. A fear society doesnt have to apply repressive laws because people themselves will internalise the limits of freedom that have been drawn by intimidators of one kind or another. Citizens will practice self-censorship so that there will no need to silence them. They will silence themselves. Self-censorship is invisible. You will only learn about it if people are honest about their motivations for not saying one thing or the other out of fear. You cannot pass a law that protects people against fear. Its extremely destructive for a society. - Flemming Rose --- "Some things have to be believed to be seen." - Ralph Hodgson ... Copied to Clipboard!

People who stick to the censoring argument usually just don't know enough to talk about the nuances of each situation. They just stick to a broad blanket argument that doesn't even cover what they think it's covering. --- Name checks out "I don't wanna be the toughest, I just keep it 100 and think nothin of it"- Black Thought ...
