Dear fediverse:

Is it just me (a non-lawyer) or is it weird that everyone celebrates the 's v UK judgement of 1976 for this one phrase (in which the Court confirms that freedom of expression includes speech that shocks, offends, or disturbs) but then the Court goes on and permits the censorship of "The Little Red Schoolbook" anyway because it offended the morals of the time?

What am I missing? 🤔
