Confession that you desire censorship for control, that you (or another individual) are capable of determining what has value for public discourse rather than permitting individuals to decide for themselves: What you are referring to are irrational, puerile, disingenuous, bigoted word-splatters that have no value as a matter of public discourse. And no confession for censorship today would be complete without the token virtue signal (savior complex) to ‘protect’ perceived helpless groups (what could be more racist?): So no, for instance, I do not think there is any value in a Black person being confronted with racist language.
