The app for independent voices

The most important issue in this piece is not whether ivermectin is an efficacious treatment for Covid. The biggest issue is whether we, as free people with freedom of speech and thought, are to be allowed to hear all sides and judge for ourselves. That's an issue that transcends YouTube. One of the most exceptional things about America is that the founders really trusted that the great mass of people could actually govern themselves, and that they could be trusted to speak and think freely. That concept flies in the face of most of human history, wherein those in power tend to hold tightly the reins of information, in the belief that people aren't to be trusted with "dangerous" ideas. As Matt rightly notes, any attempt to censor simply leads people to believe that someone is hiding something. We should demand free and open debate on EVERYTHING to do with Covid, even theories that some might find absurd. Trust the people.. the truth will rise to the surface. You'll convert many skeptics if they feel that there is total transparency. To think otherwise is to adopt the thinking of tyrants and dictators.
