i see the censorship of words by an entire culture as a great flaw in human
society.
"you see these dictators on their pedistles sorounded by the bayonets of their
soldiers and the junctions of the police, yet in there hearts, there is
unspoken, unspeakable fear. they are afraid of words and thoughts. words
spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home. all the more powerful because
forbidden. these terrify them, a little mouse a little tiny mouse of thought
appears in the room, and even the mightiest dictators are thrown into panic" -

we too are afraid of words and thoughts. it sickens me.
