I'd be more apt to care and not assume this was just IARing around
unneeded red tape if you could show where this censored legitimate
discussion about anything, and i stress legitimate, we aren't a social
networking site

usual practice is to discuss all entries in the talk page beforehand.
Since this is a site that has been termed a so-called "attack site"
because it reveals information about certain prominent Wikipedians
that they want to suppress, adding it to the spam blacklist serves as
yet another backdoor to sneak in a spawn of the failed BADSITES
policy to censor discussion. The spam blacklist is intended for the
specific purpose of stopping spammed links to irrelevant sites, and I
know of no consensus for any policy to (ab)use it in other manners.
