Really? We would be better after blocking quite the range of views we don't like?
not the views we don't like, but the ones that cause harm and suffering for western societies.
And where do we draw that line? And why only Western?
as i said to the previous poster, "i believe neuroscience has the ability to quantify suffering."
i speak of western cultures because we are so obsessed with individual liberty that we will be the hardest to convince that some censorship in the interest of promoting a healthy society is possible and needed.
