Statements like "I wish movies didn't show it as not only acceptable but even preferable" are just a softer version of "I want it to be banned".
that is hard true. saying I wish movies didn't show x, is quite different than saying I was x to be banned.
Don't be funny. If someone says "I don't want films to show x", he/she clearly specifies the wish. However the preferable method to achieve that wish is not specified. Someone preventing x from appearing in film is one method that satisfies that wish.
So what other methods are there? Performing brain surgery to change artist's mind? Assassination of artist? Divine intervention? Ban seems like the most reasonable one.

There are a lot of people here that wish Jar Jar Binks wasn't in the PT, does this mean they think Lucas should have been banned from using him? Of course not.
Is this another paradox? You wish something to happen but at the same time you don't want it to practically happen?
This is like someone wanting to take a dump but at the same time not wanting to dirty his ass hole.
