Nope, you still don't get the concept:
To the extent one can control what information people have, one is able to control the people themselves.
The issue is control. When two equals argue about whether a speaker is appropriate, it cannot, by definition, be censorship.
Besides, what are you arguing? That I, or Mort Klein, have to approve any speaker whatsoever APN chooses to host, lest we practice "censorship"? If they chose to sponsor Saddam Hussein or Sheikh Nasrullah to speak on peace in the Middle East, we would have to approve of it because disapproval would be "censorship"? The APN must be able to host whomever it judges good, but we must not judge their choice bad, because (apparently) freedom of speech is an unlimited right, and need not be balanced against any other rights, unlike every other right in the real world. |
