    It does place the ban in some more relevant historical context.

    Yes, the context of censorship, propaganda, and extremely violent imperialism.

      Propaganda is the problem being addressed.

      How the fuck else would you address it? Spare me the canned responses about “education.” The simple fact is, some sentences change people’s minds regardless of what’s true. We can either tolerate when that’s used to cause problems… or not.
