I am fully anti-censorship no matter what, but before you decide to take me out back and shoot me, it comes with an important caveat.
I don't think the government should censor anything, but I think we as people have every right to harass and ostracize people who behave poorly (being bigoted, etc). People shouldn't be arrested for saying words, but they should be terrified that their town will hate them, and that they could possibly never have a social life again.
What a lot of people fail to understand is that being anti-censorship doesn't mean anyone should be able to say whatever they want with no consequences, it means that everyone can say whatever they want, with the addition that everyone else can also respond however they like.
I always hear conservatives go, "all these liberals are trying to censor me." No. Those are the consequences of your actions, under free speech. You have free speech to be a douchebag, and I have the freedom of speech to call you a bigoted piece of shit. Simple as that.
Now obviously before you go into my notes and complain, yes there is nuance to this and yes I am aware of that. There is always nuance to everything and nothing I say should be taken as black-and-white. There is always grey and those should be taken on a case-by-case basis.
