Yes, free speech includes the right to offend and to be racist and sexist. Banning this opens the door, as you say, to banning everything big money doesn't like. We all need to maintain the right to offend. Bigots shouldn't be banned- they should be debated and made to look callous- not heros of censorship.

Excellent exposition on a process that further underlines Western hypocrisy. As US/Western hegemony continues to erode across multiple domains we can expect censorship to become increasingly intense.
