It's clear you're trying to justify a disrespectful comment by comparing it to groundbreaking scientific discourse, but let’s be real: insulting someone's intelligence isn’t intellectual debate—it’s just pettiness. Raise valid points if you have them, but leave the stupid insults out. Jeez.💯🙄🤷

No, standards and especially human progress is not a collective pursuit. More often than not it's driven by gifted individuals who happen as well to be assholes.
First off, while individual contributions have been pivotal, human progress is ultimately a collective pursuit. 1/2
However, individual opinions have been very much blocked by a collective perception of what's "right" on that given moment, be it covid vaccines or else.
May I also point out that it was my rascal comment that brought us to this conversation, not a polite ones on your feed.
I just wasn't prepared a grown up person would be so fragile he dismisses the whole point of the comment, which is, that censorship was bad in the past, is now and will be in the future, in space and time, both for science and little everyday things, like this very conversation.
