That's why ExI does not practice censorship in our moderation. It is a
libelous or slanderous attack on Extropy Institute to claim that we
condone, practice or encourage censorship. If you have any evidence to
support these claims, present them immediately. Otherwise, drop this
false claim.

Extropy Institute doesn't do any of these things. What "calls for
censorship" are you talking about?

Exactly what I am doing: Asking you to knock it off.
