Censorship is worse when they make it cringe.

People have always advocated for censorship. Always have and always will. The major thing now, is the censorious cretins aren't the Evangelical Right, an old, out-of-touch boomer movement completely external to the affected industry. Now they're the puritan left, a movement of young and old leftists coming from both in and outside the industry to consolidate and expand leftist power.
They never hated censorship due to some moral framework, they hated it because they weren't benefitting.
I know it seems like they flipped at some point, but I would argue they’ve remained consistent.
The left hate all that is pure and good and traditional. That’s why they rallied against censorship in the 60’s and 70’s when they wanted to break the influence of church, tradition and marriage so they could poison the culture with immorality. Now that church, tradition and marriage are things people are moving back towards, they’re once again trying their damndest to undermine it, only difference is now they have their filthy commie hands on all the levers. They’re always in favour of things they benefit from, as you correctly pointed out.
But they’ve remained consistent. Consistently evil.
I still remember the constant treating of 1984 like it was a book for chuds as a defense for this sort of shit. Just makes me want to throw it back in their face by saying "WOW! this is literally a fallacy!" a la the Deboonker meme every time they start using slippery slope fallacy or something like that.
