Can you answer the question?

Why do you keep avoiding this idea of authoritarian governments DDoSing human rights organizations?

> that you're ok with the government censoring which packets people send.

So, if an authoritarian government, tried to target a gay rights organization, yes I would be ok with a different government protecting this targeted minority from DDoS attacks.

This is because I do not want important human rights organizations, such as ones that protect gay people from being oppressed, from being taken off the internet by bad people.

Do you see how I just directly addressed the question, by saying that yes I am in favor of the government protecting, for example, gay rights organizations, from being DDoSed?

Do you really oppose this protection? Would you support an authoritarian government, taking down a gay rights organization?
