censorship for quality control is essential.
i post on 8ch because i'm too lazy to register for websites. this whole "imageboards are about free speech!!!" thing is tedious nonsense.
everyone forgets the catch to the /b/'s rules being ZOMG NONE!!!11 : This applies to moderators as well.
I agree, but for that you should wait till the society get education enough to be critictic with reactionary propaganda, and the capitalism has made a ignorance society currently,
that's not a problem for non-Euroskeptic countries though. it's completely backwards imho.
Just lke violence censorship can be used for good in the right hands
The north korean reaction to the kpop video has convinced me censorship is bad. If you have to censor something you are already losing, instead you need to not have to worry if something is seen by people because they have been correctly taught.
There was a point in history where humanity could have easily transitioned into a communist society, but instead we went in the wrong direction.
Nearly everything should be censored. Like braces to correct scoliosis, the party must act as a brace to reshape humanity into what it was always meant to become.
Rewrite history in its entirety. Don't be a liberal about it, nothing of value will be lost. Throw the reactionary trash where it belongs.
Freedom is always and exclusively the freedom of the dissenting voice. You can't be socialist and support censorship.
I don't have a problem with it.
Unless socialism is in power. Then it's totally consistent.
Some censorship is necessary especially during the revolution, but I'm completely against this stupid idea that we need to "reshape" humanity by protecting peoples eyes from politically/philosophically unpleasent things. It's incredibly short sighted. In USSR and other ex-socialist countries civil liberty and anti-censorship was one of Bourgeois Democracy's biggest selling points, basically "socialism but you won't be treated as a naughty child" sort of shit. The pro ultra-censorship stance never ceasea to amaze me, how low opinion these people have of the people they claim to fight for.
