It's sad, because this is what has happened to practically the whole Rationalism movement over the past decade.

It went from pointing out and debunking stupid shit, to attempting to censor and deplatform stupid shit, which just makes that shit look more legitimate to impressionable folks.

What ever happened to the good old ignore? We forget they exist wont it kind of just go away?

It’s not like the people there are on the fence about getting the vaccine or not right?
