This is why there is a meme about "won't someone think of the children," which is most often aimed at right-wing actions. They use the idea of helping to further causes that do the opposite.

It's not just the right. Look way back to the Tipper Gore push for censorship of rock music. The advocates of free speech came out then to show why blocking speech doesn't work and ends up hurting more than it could ever help. For those too young to remember or who haven't heard about it, you ought to look into the Congressional hearings videos. Especially where they asked John Denver to speak on behalf of the censorship move, and were shocked when he was fully against it.
