You would have to proof that your facts are indeed true. But if you accept it as a huge difference between cultures, how can you impose a filter for a culture that doesn't need it or wants it?
Just like a normal addition to Mediawiki: Those who don't want to use it, don't have to.
How would you expect to find a good compromise in decisions on what to filter and what not? Do you intend to put an extremist conservative Arab and and the most liberal German inside the same room, close the door, go away, come back after two weeks and look if they could find a compromise about Yes or No? How should this work?
Quite simple: add one filter for each, and describe for each what they filter, then let every user for themself decide whether to filter the one, the other, neither or both.
The referendum showed that cultural neutrality is important for the voters. But how do you think to find a compromise between hell and heaven, without having hell and heaven inside the discussions at commons at earth?
See above - if your filters are not almost the same, don't use the same filter, but create two different ones.
