You're conflating censorship and moderation.
Moderation can create a productive discussion, but no automated word filter is going to fix that community if people are motivated to be hateful, troll or spam.
Besides, the subject in question is not "hateful spam" or a "hateful" meme. It's charged, opinionated political speech but you'd really have to be stretching the meaning of "hateful" to apply it here.
Of course, expanding that definition is the political strategy of some interest groups right now. But this is a great illustration of how fuzzy and easily abused that advocacy really is.
