But, instead, what i said was that the particular group of implied censors in the (grand?)parent comment was attempting to point individual art and entertainment pieces in a direction they believed to be right, and that social justice leaders, historically, believed the fight was much larger than that, and they (to a person) believed that education was the best way to accomplish these ends. I have a terrible time explaining myself to humans.
