Censorship is everywhere; even CT is censored by CC Ltd, just read the rules wink.  I'm not defending it but it is something we live with all the time.

I have no issues with censorship, particularly if the censoring is in the common good. If I think the censoring is not acceptable I will move onπŸ‘πŸ».

Palm oil is in many everyday items, foods and products. One of those hidden items no one really thought much about until something like this campaign highlights it. I think it replaced whale oil is some things, we don’t want to go there again either. Sad fact that given the worlds population, it’s insatiable need for the next best thing, something, somewhere, a natural environment, a species, a civilisation, is being ruined, killed,  spoilt. Pandora’s box opens up somewhere new every day.

Moving over to something other than palm oil will sadly impact somewhere else, someone else, another species. All we can do is hope whatever it is is more carefully controlled, and managed, and in the meantime, humans become more aware, curb the must have at any cost mentality.

On the bright side, human fertility has apparently plummeted. Something like this is likely to have a greater impact overall on Earth. But not in our lifetime.frown

I also agree and fully support free speech.

I’ve witnessed abusive free speech on this very forum, the then Mods stopped it, they they then were attacked. Free speech is a gift, the gift needs protecting not abusing.

Unfortunately there are some who will take advantage of free speech to promote evil but that is far removed from the Iceland advert and I wonder where the petition to save it can be found? DD was it on the news link?
