2 days agoIt is something I have never thought to question.
A citizen in a democracy has a right to all information, and to decide for themselves. Any other system seems in conflict with “ignorance is not an excuse.”
How can I know what I am not allowed, or think your proper thoughts before they cross your mind to inform my ignorance.

It is just a higher level of abstraction with the overlying ethical principles and morality, like a conversation with an autocrat where their word is law.
