If you want a simple theory that doesn’t solve a complex problem, here’s one: “censorship is evil,” without careful consideration of what does and does not constitute “censorship.”
If Alice decides not to consume Bob’s content, some might automatically say she has “censored” Bob. And we all know that “censorship is evil,” so … she’s done a bad thing, or something, according to our simple (but clearly misleading) theory.
I’d posit that nothing is inherently evil, but it’s the ramifications that determine the depth of the “evil.”
