One additional value of speaking out against the Elders ... it serves as a testimony in the future. We may not win the day today, but truth has an interesting way of overwhelming false narratives in the long term. Heretics in previous ages are now held as visionary scientists. While it didn’t end well for them, it has helped us live better lives.

Thanks gato! Reminds me of plato’s allegory of the cave. This part really spoke to me:

“ how many people would have thought they were alone and presumed that the silence of others meant agreement with narrative?” found myself feeling very alone at times early on in this. Social media for better or worse does help like minded attract.

Science IS skepticism. Science is NEVER censorship.
