I'm not even going to argue with Dang as I don't want to get banned over this. I'm used to this bias in all social platforms. It's not new to me. Cancel culture is the norm. If you are a square peg in a round hole you will be cast out. Unfortunate reality. Anyways I am happy atleast I have some support here from others who see it for what it is.

We used to be able to have data driven civil conversations. Well folks, getting to the truth isn’t easy or comfortable and sometimes feelings will get hurt. But is that a reason to shy away from the truth?

That "we" was a very exclusive club by design, and now that people outside it are trying to butt in, it is only natural that doors would be slammed in their face. The idea that the club was open to all was a fiction, told in the knowledge that only "we" had a voice to speak with anyways.
