not the views we don't like, but the ones that cause harm and suffering for western societies.

“Ones that cause harm and suffering” is subjective though.

Blocking online content, even ones we don’t like, is a slippery slope

i believe it can be objective. i believe neuroscience has the ability to quantify suffering. i believe if we spent more time studying neuroscience and the health of a society, this could all be feasible.

i agree that censorship of things we 'don't like' is not a society i want to live in. i just think that there are objective answers to what now seems like vague questions.

You may believe it cna be objective but believing that isn't enough.
