Either the forbidden post is false, in which case it does not deserve protection because it’s false,
Even if this is right the censorship extends to perhaps true conversations about why the post is false. Moreover, I don’t see what truth has to do with it. There are plenty of false claims made on this site that nonetheless should be public because understanding why they’re false and how someone might come to think that they are true are worthwhile endeavors.
The question here is rather straight forward: does the harm of the censorship outweigh the harm of letting people talk about the post. I can understand how you might initially think those who disagree with you are just responding to knee-jerk anti-censorship instincts that aren’t necessarily valid here. But from where I stand the arguments made by those who disagree with you do not fit this pattern. I think XiXi has been clear in the past about why the transparency concern does apply to SIAI. We’ve also seen arguments for why censorship in this particular case is a bad idea.
