You can list any number of things, but we were talking about censorship, so I don’t see the need to throw another subject into the mix.

I think your parent is arguing that they use the threat of the camps to back up their censorship.

I am indeed. But of course your use of the term "threat" might imply to some readers that it is not a reality for those poor souls... I would substitute "hellish reality".

Thanks for clarifying, but I still don't think this is relevant to the current discussion. This is probably another discussion as to why people allow censorship, one reason could be the punishment, but there are probably many other reasons.
