Blindly following the censors down the road to "more censorship" is *not* going to end well, if we let history be our guide.

I can hear @Popehat 's temple vein throbbing from here.

A quotation from Griswold, Whitney:

«««««
Books won’t stay banned. They won’t burn. Ideas won’t go to jail. In the long run of history, the censor and the inquisitor have always lost. The only sure weapon against bad ideas is better ideas.

Well, this is certainly a positive development! If Elon Musk can successfully monetize Twitter as a turnkey service for dissemination of corrosive propaganda, he might eventually be induced to think favorably of democracy!

From the description:

"How many times have you heard someone say "we need to hear both sides," or "we have to respect other opinions"? Probably a lot. But are all ideas really created equal, and should we go out of our way to provide a level playing field in the marketplace of ideas? Let's find out!"

Getting Caught Up, Oct 2022:
"Little Twee Library"

sinkers.org/stage/?p=3529

I don’t know about your city, but here in the tonier ‘hoods of DC, the Little Free Libraries are a big thing. Sounds really noble and grassrootsy n’shit until you get a load of what’s actually in the goddamn things. It’s basically the kind of instantly-obsolete stuff you used to see stacked on the sidewalk in front of the fence in front of the house with a little post-it note reading “FREE”...

As I'd commented a few times and the hashtag should have made clear, this poll is about the "Marketplace of Ideas" concept, which in one interpretation seems to suggest that if you've got a contentious discussion, the apparently obvious solution is to expand it without limit.

(Other interpretations exist, including that arbitrarily limiting who can discuss a topic at all might be discriminatory, but the question as posed captures a flavour frequently encountered.)

On reflection, the notion does appear rather rediculous. I'd suggest that more contentious questions needs more structured, rather than less structured, discussion. Often with specific expertise or qualifications.

"This is a discussion that's going poorly, I know what will fix it, let's expand it to an immensely larger group of people!!!"

How often has this seemed emminently reasonable to you?

Boosts appreciated.
