To be clear, I don't necessarily agree with isaacremuant.

Obscenity laws are kind of different, since it's perfectly possible to add or remove obscenities from an utterance without substantially affecting the message. I'm not saying I agree with such laws, just stating the facts. What are examples where specific types of messages were banned? E.g. hate speech laws, blasphemy laws, lese majeste laws, etc. In Western democracies, the only examples that come to mind are recent.

>People agree with censorship if it's in in agreement with their belief.

Agreed, generally speaking.

Geez, what did I say that was so disagreeable? This is why I don't have a permanent account here. Whatever.
