If there'd been censorship in the country he made that rant about censorship it'd have been censored so the very existence of that thing shows clearly that there is no censorship there

The mass media (or most of it) have a strict far-left political agenda and will refuse to publish things that don't fit that agenda.
That's however not censorship. It's freedom of expression, however abhorrent it is for "reputable" news media to do.
It's also political propaganda.

If you want censorship, look at communist China, Cuba, North Korea, Zimbadwe, and pretty much every other communist country in the world.
Sadly some supposedly free countries are going that way as well, like Finland which is blocking websites their political leadership doesn't agree with under the excuse that they contain child porn, websites which typically include sites that are critical of that censorship program and try to expose it.

As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.
