"but this is different..."

As far as I can tell, the so called slippery slope fallacy came and went. We decided in favour of censorship -- but if you can censor one type of content, expect many more to be added to the list.

I agree. Also, I was intentional vague. When I wrote it I was thinking of more extremest discussions around people glorifying mass murder. Which doesn't necessarily fall under a nsfw tag.

If I had the choice, I'd much rather have the completely free and open internet we used to have but that ship has sailed as you mentioned.

You’re actively arguing for revving up the engines and setting out while defending that decision as if it has already taken place. While plenty of people are disagreeing with the potential decision.

Also, I’m not a “we” and neither are you. Stop hiding behind some imaginary hive mind.

"you're actively arguing for revving up the engines" Am I? Not sure why you're attacking every character of text. Relax kid.
