Not only that, but "I will continue shocking people" could be taken as an intent
or a prediction of people's reactions. Either he intends to shock people
purposefully or he fully expects people to continue to be shocked. You really
have put words into his mouth, and I don't think that's right. Also a bit funny
that you intend to solve "censorship" (not that I agree) with more censorship.
