A new message from Ivory Tower

The pro-censorship arguments have become so bizarre lately, that I decided to repost "A Message from Ivory Tower", first posted here in 2018 to troll so-called skeptics and debunkers. Soon, the liberals will start to sound like this for real!

I'm all for people questioning everything, but there are some things you just can't question. 

For instance, the round earth, heliocentrism, evolution, the non-existence of Bigfoot, Lee Harvey Oswald's guilt and Hillary Clinton. For instance, we know (on the authority of Psy-Ops, I mean, CSICOP) that 65% of those who question Hillary end up as card-carrying members of the Flat Earth Society within three years. 

I'm for having an open mind and all that, but there's a difference between my open mind and your closed mindedness. Therefore, questioning these things should be banned in the interest of the public good. That's not an attack on free speech or free inquiry. It's a defense of Western civilization itself, which we all know was based on free inquiry. 

And if you question *that*, you can't expect me not to take any action. Yeah, really.
