Where has Mozilla said anything about implementing browser level blocking?

I don't see that specifically stated in their announcement, and you raise a very good point.
It seems the author of the article linked is inferring it. I don't think Mozilla will by default introduce blocking. They're not completely insane, even if they seem bent on pushing the kind of censorship they'd have railed against a decade ago. The worst I can imagine is they'd install an ad-on, one that can be disabled, that 'fact checks' content. This would of course be fact-checking provided by the likes of Snopes and the ADL.
