r/conservative r/conspiracy r/donaldtrump all come to mind as communities that (up until one was recently banned) complained about censorship while constantly banning users for providing debate.

Heck, I signed up for Gab and was almost immediately banned from the entire site after sharing my liberal opinion.

Interesting, I guess we're just talking about different populations of 'people complaining about censorship.' I never spend time on forums whose main stated purpose is political discussion but still hear a lot of discussion about censorship in my daily life, so I don't really jump to gab, r/conspiracy, r/donaldtrump, etc when I hear that phrase. I don't think I'd characterize those places as being the majority of people concerned about corporate censorship, though
