Todays conspiracy is often tomorrow's orthodoxy. Society is better served by erring on the side of free speech and letting evolution decide what ideas are good and where are not. This was settled hundreds of years ago but apparently this generation did not get the memo.

I hope this isn't true. Imagine if flat earth, anti-vaccines and 911 was faked becomes "orthodoxy". We'd be a regressed society.

Flat earth is 5% idiots and some damn near remainder trolling, but the other two… what if they were right?

Obviously they aren’t.

But in this scenario, what if they were and you were part of the useful idiots covering up for someone? You would be the bad guy directly hurting society… so instead, how about a free marketplace of thoughts and opinions and allow the “orthodoxy” to be organic even if it might slightly be flawed on average (to the example we land on “no vaccines aren’t bad, but we have a lot more required testing and liability just incase”).

What makes your pet theories better than anyone else’s? Why “can’t” you be wrong?

Do you trust YT to decide for you what is nonsense and what is not? I do not, and I think I could make a pretty good case as to why not.
