Day 22 - Censorshipby
shalrathComment by theSaj: Actually, I complain both about senseless violence, senseless language, senseless nudity and senseless tele-evangelists.
*lol*
That said, I think the people you are criticizing for censorship are some of the most censored members of society as well as being many of the most vocal for censorship.
That said, I think when companies that provide clean edits are shut down, when all the digital tools that allow for clean edits are censored. And you have a great film that is otherwise fine for say an 8 yr old except for one meaningless 3-minute scene. That said individuals should not be prevented from editing that scene out if they so choose, nor paying someone else to edit it.
To me, censorship is bad...but it's just as bad as forcing such views.
Frankly, I think if we just ended the pissing match and showed some decency to both sides of the issue a lot could be resolved in an intelligent way.
Alas, not going to happen....
