Clearly? The only thing that's clear to me is that you didn't read what I wrote. My point is people can and should be able to say whatever they want: truth, lies, beliefs, opinions or whatever other label you want to apply. It's not the information which is harmful -- it's the actions people take based on their own irrational interpretation of it.

"Quelling lies" is not a quote from me, those were Silver's words. To me that is censorship, which is what I've been advocating against, not for.

I don't think anyone here is advocating that. Quite the contrary, in fact.
