Like what's to stop these Muslim extremists from trying to censor or ban something on a significantly bigger scale?
And I know you're probably thinking whataboutery or something similar, but we have seen throughout history how the tiniest of things can set off more crazy **** later on down the line.
It's the same worry that I have with Starmer's policing the Internet policy, because it starts with “bad words” and then it's age verification for certain Wikipedia pages, Spotify, and Porn sites. And we know that he'll eventually come for places like Twitter, YouTube, and Facebook with the same authoritarian and Dystopian crap.
And it's the same thing here with the Muslim extremists, you don't give them an inch because they'll now think that they can dictate what is and isn't okay to air in French Cinema, and if they're crazy enough they might even try to censor News publications.

Democracy is not compatible with the modern age. It only worked when information availability was limited and slow. That, unfortunately, is the sad reality of the present day. The world is ****ed, and unfortunately, there is no going back
