Newspeak, Thought Crime, Censorship, Safe Places, Eternal Corruption | Interstice Podcast Ep.23
Manage episode 268213349 series 2594555
The topics hit hard and heavy on this episode. After uploading a comedic vlog I was called out for using a swear-word of the barely abrasive kind. This kind of condemnation usually comes at the behest of greater inclusion. What is, and will forever remain, ironically funny to me, is that calls for censorship, contradict the very thing that they are trying to protect. Nuance, freedom of expression, inclusiveness, must not ever become the hostage of propriety. And we must never think that they are immune to becoming so. What is most vile of censorship and thought crime, is it's ability to masquerade as virtue.
