I agree with this sentiment. I am concerned with the direction western tech platforms are taking with regard to censorship.

Now the opposite has become true with Google introducing programatic censorship via Perspective API

I suppose because I'm curious to gauge the way tech workers interact with someone who they may disagree with from a moral or ideological standpoint while I attempt to share information and have discussions in a well intentioned manner. If my username provokes discussion of censorship I'm not sure if that will help my cause. Maybe it will, or maybe it will not. Anyhow I'll try to make quality posts until I'm inevitably removed.
