If the world only had 3 people and we were stuck in the back of a lion's den, and the lion was sleeping blocking the way out..... and one of the people wanted to scream... I would be in favor of censorship.

Censorship is one of those silly arguments. Of course we all want censorship in some form. I don't want my kids taught flat-earth theory in school. It is just another word for filtering. We all want access to useful information and for that we need to suppress the noise. It is just a question of how loose to make the boundaries and to whom you delegate the power to filter information for you and who else is impacted.

Generally you want information curation to be fairly loose to let new ideas in and be separated from governance, but it gets murky from there.

You’ve got a point.

What about the lion though? Maybe it’s hungry, has children to feed.

You are right I didn't consider the needs of the lion.

Mike, how did you not! 😂💜

🤦 *shame*

the first step in building a society is physical removal of undesirables - lion in this case

once you get rid of Blacks, Jews and other undesirables you can enjoy a considerable level of freedom

but nothing is ever absolute - that's an illusion - and a dangerous one at that

if cows had rights we would all be starving for example
