Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I find it interesting how racism (of all things) is the reason you suggest
 implementing a mechanism for censorship in an anti-censorship tool. Does
 that mean you think child porn is a-okay? If the developers didn't add
 tools to remove onion sites hosting child porn, what makes you think
 they'd add it to remove racists?

 I am glad this proposal has been rejected.
