I tend to agree with you in whole, with caveat that past contributions don't speak to current value, necessarily. I'm always reminded of the ruthless statement, "God cares not what you have done, but what you are doing". I say it tongue-in-cheek, but there's wisdom to it.

Also, can we all stop describing any view or information as "dangerous"? It sounds like my mom, or religious people from the 80's.

False is one judgement and objectively proven.

"Dangerous" smacks of a censorious nature, which is subjective and, sorry, often based on a conflict of interest/agenda.

Encourage everyone to read Matt Taibbi's recent article about the recent rise of "virtuous" censorship as food for thought: https://taibbi.substack.com/p/temporary-coronavirus-censorsh...
