Yes, this is 100% what I'm saying. I never want to silence anyone.

I just so happen to hold those same views. I came here to learn and speak with others with wildly different views. I think you and I understand perfect 100% balanced representation is impossible; there will always be a slant, but we can at least try to correct it.

It's like how conspiracies are very popular on this site. I personally find 90% of them complete bullshit, but I'd never tell anyone that they shouldn't post them. I argue against them when I feel like putting forth the effort thus correcting the "slant". I'm not censoring, I'm representing the contrary.

i notice y'all sidestepped the 'left and right is a nonsense" part , which was really the meat of the comment.
