> I don't care how much "good reason" you think you have, it doesn't make censorship not censorship
Agreed. The problem isn't censorship, it's that people have this idea that censorship is inherently evil. I guess this stems from gross ignorance about how fucking stupid people in general are, and how they're taken advantage of by charlatans, to the detriment of society as a whole.
Watch these two (short, 2min) clips showing an interview of the darling of the GOP:
This is a video of a man who lied to get into office (about being a small businessman, about his accident derailing a Naval career, about being a constitutional expert, etc) and then used that platform to spread lies that led to insurrection and deaths.
It's simply irresponsible to let such filth continue to mislead people, and censoring him would be better for USA, and better for the planet.
