Let's debate how to manage public debate, of course, but 1) moderation is not censorship. Pretending it is feels like a bad faith argument; 2) free speech knows limits by design, so an argument for limits to free speech is not per se one pro censorship.

Mijn eerste bijdrage voor @Sampol_magazine als gastcolumnist gaat over een 'voorzorgsdenken' die al langer op mijn maag ligt. Desinfo is problematisch, maar de oplossingen kunnen dat ook zijn, zeker als men door de "dreiging" legitieme bezorgdheden gaat minimaliseren
