This is, unfortunately, the left's view of the undiscussable: ignorant quackery.

But a real heterodox environment can foster discussion on real ways the current consensus is lacking.

Like whether reopening schools last Fall was a good idea, as many Republican states did. (I think it was.)

Or whether challenge trials for the vaccines should be allowed. (Could have saved thousands of lives.)

Or discussion of how Covid originated. If you remember, this truly was undiscussable last year.

We should never be so confident that we hush up alternative ideas. We make a better society by seeking out how the status quo can be wrong.
