At times, we might be tempted to censor voices that we view as reactionary, divisive or excessively critical but what purpose would that really serve? Censorship would minimize our awareness of questionable trends within the movement, and our ability to respond effectively. Providing an editorial disclaimer specifically for content that we find objectionable—as some readers have suggested—would alienate the author and marginalize like-minded EF!ers. It would also grant the editorial collective a level of authority that is incompatible with an egalitarian movement.
