Do we really want to live in a world where the bunny attack scene from Monty Python is censored because it is 'offensive'?

Alright. I have to share this and you should too. I went to have a laugh and re-watch the Bunny Attack Scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail and I found this instead. No YouTube. I DO NOT WISH TO PROCEED.
You guys are too nice for me to use the kind of language I would like to, to describe what I think of this. So I will make of fun of it instead.
I guess ‘some audiences’ who would be ‘offended’, believe in the existence of killer flying rabbits then? I guess they think that this scene is actually a true depiction of real events? I guess ‘some audiences’ believe this scene is a snuff film?
I imagine it would go like this is the mind of ‘some audiences’.
Ahem: “Oh my goodness! All of those poor medieval men! They lost their heads to that deadly flying rabbit! I am so offended that anyone would think this was funny! Think of the men! Look at the bones!”
Here’s another link if you just really need to watch it now. :)
People need to stop using Youtube. Peertube is open source and free to install on your own servers. Plus it can easily be federated. You in effect run your own Youtube Inc and can allow users.
It is both totally unbelievable and totally believable that this clip would be censored today. One of the signs of totalitarianism is that the fanatical followers and enforcers of tyranny lose their sense of humor.
On a lighter note, I discovered a hilarious mashup of this skit with Moloko’s “Killa Bunnies” song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XkgWXPMgyI) and included it in the first footnote of this piece:
