Yeah I really don’t care about this case much. Actually a good example of less important stuff. It’s practical things like nuclear physics (buddy majoring has had it refuse questions), biochem, ochem, energetics & arms, etc. that I dislike.

Oh, interesting. I hadn't considered censorship in these areas!
