I Give a Shit About: Censorship

Censorship has allways been a major part of society from the begining, ever since there was someone higher up telling someone lower down what to do, there has allways been censorship. It's been around for different reasons, sure, but it's still there. Wheter to control the populace and secure the leaders place, or cover up some collosal fuck up, censor ship is there. But I ask you, in a time where freedom of speech, freedom of religion and freedom in general is worth starting a freaking war over, why are we still censored? Some censorship is for our "own good", for instance in the case of violent video games or inappropriate films. However, who defines what is good for us? I mean, shouldn't we individually have the right to choose to see what we see, and accept the consequences for ourselves, if any, that come with that? I think maybe we got lazy, at one point we passed on the right to decide what we should see to others, and from it beaucracy festered in it like some kind of parasitic bug. And now, we have some asshole suit telling me what is appropriate for me, because of my demographic. And beyond that, whats with all the political correctness? I think, maybe we'd all just get along alot easier if everyone would stop being offended by every, little, thing and started to actually grow a pair and just ignore it, instead of whining about every little tinsy, tiny detail.
