Effectively censored in our own private world. I am shocked, literally, at how many people on here appear to think that is a good thing.

I have repeatedly asked if the authoritarians on here really would like to be able to censor people's very thoughts, I doubt they'd deny it. I admit I have not read all the replies, have any of them denied it ?

Censoring people's thoughts not very democratic,  the 'road to hell.

Rather attractive lady.

She had a problem with hair loss once but apparently fixed it by eating steak https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3241163/amp/I-stopped-hair-falling-eating-steak-putting-hot-water-bottles-head-says-Nadine-Dorries-reveals-trauma-alopecia-reduced-tears.html

Putting aside the private/not private argument, nobody is censoring thoughts.

 

When you start vocalising those thoughts to other people it can become offensive - and this was overtly offensive.

 

Racism and misogyny just aren’t acceptable. Vocalising that in a group of people isn’t acceptable. We know at least one person found it offensive.

 

I am similarly stunned that you can't see the offence in the statements and that you find them to be perfectly acceptable, to be honest.

🤣 It is interesting though.  These Vegans might be setting themselves up for hair loss.

Don't worry. Thoughts can't be censored. Unless we have the technology to read people's minds. 

 

One less thing for you to get literally shocked over..

You’ll have to guess what I think about that.

How can you censor people's thoughts?

And even if someone had the ability to do that; I very much doubt that you'd be in the running order to have their thoughts censored. You're just not very important.

 

As for what actually happened. Hester made his comments after some of his employees put in complaints about racism; and like a David Brent, he used the opportunity at a work meeting about racism, to make racist remarks. Hardly a private world
