No movement for human liberation has ever sought censorship. You are trying to create a police state. Please stop. The whole world is watching.

The vulnerable are never, ever protected by censorship. They are empowered by freedom of speech. In seeking to deprive your fellow Irish of the most sacred of rights, you are your colleagues reveal yourselves to be the ones motivated by hatred. twitter.com/hmcentee/statu…

Censorship does not protect the vulnerable - ultimately it harms them, and all of us. This is terrible and is a violation of the fundamental principles of the enlightenment and the best parts of western civilization. You are on the wrong side of history with this.
