What if that 'extremist content' is pro-LGBT content somewhere else? What if it's criticism of religion? There's no consensus that those aren't equivalent to extremist content around the world, so such censorship does just as good a job at stopping what we once, in the West, considered abhorrent and obscene, as whatever we consider abhorrent today. I don't get how you can consistently square that circle.
- battery_cowboy 6y agoWell, rascist content tends to denigrate and harm people, it causes people to get killed and injured, while pro-LGBT content tends to call for love and allow people to love who they want. I can see the difference, can you? You make it sound like some slippery slope fallacy, but it's not the same speech. Calling for hate is wrong and should be shuttered in the darkness.
- hubert1234 6y agoReally, so giving young children hormones to transition to the other gender doesnt harm anybody? You simply have no idea what the argument of the other side even is. You live in an airtight bubble.
- battery_cowboy 6y agoHmm, so letting people be themselves is harmful to others? Maybe if you're a jerk. Don't bother responding, i don't care about your crazy interpretations.
- monadgonad 6y ago> so giving young children hormones to transition to the other gender doesnt harm anybody? Correct.
- DaedalusPsyk_ 6y agoWhat is the point of arguing that? In places that do designate pro-LGBT content as extremist such as Russia, they already perform censorship. Yet in places such as UK which does have censorship and hate speech laws, they don't.
