I disagree with trying to deplatform ideas you don't agree with.

Engage with them, show them the error of their thinking, but if you drive it underground you just trap those people in a bubble filled with like minded people and the chance they change their mind approaches zero.

Plus there is always the chance you're the one who's wrong - even if you're on the side with the widely accepted viewpoint.

All innovation at least begins with a dissenting voice.
