Coming from the country that started to ban some kinds of information
"to protect children", later transferring that to a whole wide
censorship, I'd support protecting 'free speech', which includes all
kinds of minorities: PoC, LGBTQ+ and anarchists, masochists, etc.
According to Debian's CoC we use non-offensive ways to communicate
within the project, so that everybody is welcome to speak and
contribute. But we should not censor software. If there is a
misogynistic comment in GNU HURD sources, should we censor it out?
