I agree in principal, Netherworks, but there's a difference between censorship and enforcing community standards. This site is owned and operated by someone else who lets us use it for free. I'll support your right to free speech, but if you're at a party at my house and you start saying stuff that's pissing off me and the other guests and messing up the place for everyone else, I'll throw you out and you can exercise your rights elsewhere. Is that censorship? There isn't a society on earth that can survive anarchy. Rules are there to govern people who don't have the social skills to govern themselves. Jefferson said: "The government governs best which *governs least."* not *"which governs not."* In my experience, those who've had a hard time with the rules here could freely post whatever they like at Renderotica. If you're free to express it elsewhere, you're not being censored. "There are bonds which lead to slavery, and there are bonds which lead to freedom." There. I'm done. If you want to continue this we can do it in a new thread.
