Serious question: Where will it end? Gone with the Wind was taken off of streaming services just recently. It seems like what is ans is not acceptable is a moving target so how will we know when we have cleared all the problematic artifacts of our past and present?https://twitter.com/wizards_magic/status/1270825048241135616 …

GONE WITH THE WIND was taken off of one streaming service, which has said it's going to put it back up with a discussion of context but leave the original film intact. Still available to stream everywhere else.pic.twitter.com/dsFek9zukS

Appreciate the additional info. That said, I think my point that self-censorship continues to expand still stands. It doesn't always make sense to extrapolate out a trend, but...it's been continuing unabated now for a while.

What you call "self-censorship" I would call "being more thoughtful" since imo you can only be censored by others. Magic: The Gathering reviewing their catalogue to check for racial stereotypes is reasonable self-reflection, not censorship.

Just wait. Soon your views will be non-consensus and then you'll feel differently. Self-reflection as well?https://comicbook.com/irl/news/lego-police-white-house-sets-statement-about-selling/ …

Some people see your and my fraternity membership as endorsements of the behaviors that caused some of them to be banned from our college campus. The trend won't be your friend.
