Who claims that? I explicitly want censorship to target innocents. There is no single person's speech (even my own) that we can't live without. I would much rather the banhammer come down a few feet over the fence so that people can't get too close to it. I say this as someone who both wields and has been hit with the banhammer. You store your hammer in the freezer specifically for the chilling effect.
Strong moderation in communities does make those communities better. We're in one of them. Your workplace is likely one of them. Your social sphere is one too hand curated by you. IRL we call this social norms and boundaries, but when it's online or in print people get weird about it.
