  But they’re not censoring 4chan because they’re white supremacist, they’re censoring them because of consensual adult material.

    consensual and 4chan should not be in the same sentence given their history.

      True, but the UK doesn’t care if it’s consensual or not.

  That's not how human rights work. Either they're for everyone or they're for no one.

      Good thing no one was talking about that. We were talking about freedom of speech.

  I actually sometimes use 4chan, if that’s what you think it is then you’re frankly pretty deluded & again these laws are dangerous and will eventually be turned on something you support. You are falling hook line and sinker for ye olde “think of the kids” line that the political class roll out for authoritarian surveillance legislation.Image
