10/10 times somebody seethes at the idea of merely listening to ideas that they might dislike or disagree with is some extremist whacko who gets all their information from a heavily vetted and censored echo chambers.
Which ideas? Be specific :)
It literally doesn't matter. Blocking yourself off from any ideas, no matter how tame or how extreme is something that's both sad and dangerous. Willful ignorance is a poison. It's not a sign of purity or strength, it's a sign of fear and weakness.
Nah, sod off. We've fought wars over some of these "ideas". We don't need to rehash them until the end of time. We hear more diverse ideas from the diverse people who are allowed to thrive by removing a tiny handful of bigoted opinions.
Why do you want to silence those diverse people and their varied opinions? Are you scared of their ideas? Are you a weak little coward?
