> censoring discussion about the existence of censorship, otherwise you could circumvent the censorship of the particular topic by discussing the fact that it's being censored.

Can you elaborate what that would consist of here?`

> discussion about covid censorship was also censored.

Any examples?

Examples of censorship around Covid? Are you serious? Pick the topic. Either about the existence of Covid in countries like China, or about the questioning that a vaccinated person still being able to transmit the virus.

This is very thoroughly documented.

Those are on the topic itself. We were arguing whether the discussion of the existence of censorship was being silenced or not.

Basically: did someone who said "I can't talk about X or I'll be silenced! there is censorship!" also get THAT opinion muted?

While it was off the topic of the original argument: was there censorship of the opinion that Covid existed in China in any countries with supposedly free speech?
