I would. Appetite for censorship should be measured against something I find unpalatable. When one starts down the road of making decisions for others - it is only a question of time before someone does the same for you with possibly a different perspective. The moment one finds themselves outside the groupthink on spaces vs tabs, I'd like that bar to be as far away as possible.

The RT ban is not about what RT publishes, you are free to publish their arguments more or less verbatim on your own site without getting sanctioned in Europe (which indeed some people do). The RT ban is about RT being a state owned propaganda network owned by the government thats waging an active war against Europe.

So why haven't we banned Israeli news sites and companies for their war/genocide in Gaza?

Because Israel is not engaged in a war against Europe.

Russia has attacked Ukraine. Not Europe.

Neither Ukraine nor Israel is part of EU or NATO.

Russia is also not engaged in a direct war with Europe yet we still sanction them because they are by proxy, similar to Israel: Israel's actions in Gaza are creating waves of refugees that Europe has to take in, and then we have the potential terrorist attacks by those people as revenge for Europe's military aid to Israel who see Europe as partly to blame for destruction of their home country.

Israel definitely should be sanctioned till it stops its war crimes because doing nothing will directly affect us.

Ukraine is most definitely a part of Europe.

Yes, and so is big parts of Russia. Attacking one country is not the same as attacking a continent.

Moldova and Georgia and Ukraine, as relates to its aggression in Europe.

It takes a lot of mental gymnastics to completely ignore the historical context of these two conflicts. There is no question that Russia's war in Ukraine is a proxy war against the West - they say so directly by justifying it as a defense against "NATO encroachment" and making demands that the Ukraine can never, say, join the EU.

Israel should be sanctioned because of the war crimes and the genocide perpetrated by their government, I agree, but that's a different thing.

Their very justification for the war is supposed "NATO encroachment". It is very clearly a proxy war against the EU.
