Your argument/trope fails for a simple reasons: "They" don't exist.

* Here on HN we censor each other.

* The US censors basic nudity.

* Germany censors denying the Holocaust.

* The patent office censors inventions.

* Scientists have devised a peer-censorship system.

* The police censors your attempts to distribute illegal material.

* Banks censor your funds to ISIS.

... the list goes on and on and on.
