I question the characterization of the raw materials under consideration
here as mere "varying opinions".  The target of the PR action has proudly
stated that his tactics involve the use of ridicule.  I prefer the term
"polemics", but either way, it's not as simple as a difference of opinion.

If we're going to accept that euphemism, then I suggest we need to stop
tossing around the word "censorship" as well.
