It has often occured to me that one of the rationale to start a colony in Mars is that wealth (at least on Earth) is mainly distributed among the wrong people, which is why so many short-sighted decisions have been made collectively by us who dominate the planet. And real innovations and progressive things are super rare. And they are often accompanied by (unnecessary) tragedies or sufferings that don't have to be that way. Theatres and facades are the norms.

But I now have come to the realisation that wrong is perhaps only in the eye of the beholder.

And there will always be censorship in a society as long as you look hard enough for it. Probably a feature not a bug though.

Maybe it just demonstrates this is the best we get collectively with neural circuitries like ours.

I have lamented that a model of censorship is equivalent to free information consistently cherry-picked. In terms of censoring misinformation, there is potential benefit. It needs a system of public trust, however
