I didn't think about it like that before. Censorship really is treating adults like children. We need to get more people to realise this. No one likes being treated like a child except idiots who want to be protected and coddled like that.

Children need a "safe space". Mature adults rise to the challenge of the real world.

Except that children don't need safe spaces - they need dangerous play to learn about the world.

There is a good quote by Mark Twain on that: "Censorship is telling a man he can't have a steak just because a baby can't chew it."

Censorship is used by those in power to control the masses.

Bingo. And so they use websites like reddit as a powerful tool to further their agenda. Then you add corporations in the mix and it just becomes an all around mind f***.

The problem is that new "adults" now are emotionally and mentally children in bigger (hehe) bodies. Pathetic pussies that can't handle real problems.

-4 points, 1 ups, 5 downs, 1,745 views

kek. Someone's butthurt.

Also, 5 downs? That is offensive to sufferers of Down syndrome (which isn't called because they're "a downer", or less than other people, but it's named after the person who described it, John Langdon Down). Think of all the offended extra chromosomes!

Correlation doesn't prove causation, but it's interesting nonetheless.
