Some people want a quick laugh, and that's fine; others don't, and that's also fine. Or just different things at different times. The whole problem of the "eternal september" effect is that it tends toward the lowest common denominator (and anyway the majority of people, anecdotally speaking, seem to gravitate toward the cheap thrills). Having found something nice in Hubski I'm clinging to it and wishing it'll be an everlasting summer.
I'm not sure about active censorship, but it could just be an instinctive revulsion. After all, a certain amount of censorship already exists, in that people are not allowed to post pornography or spam or suchlike, and further censorship would simply be an extension of this. Or maybe it wouldn't, since such things tend to be lumped into a special forbidden category but one that is not arbitrarily made up of things with which people disagree. ...I don't have all the answers; I'm going to bed.
