    As soon as someone self describes a a neither right nor left free thinker, I know exactly what they are

      We should encourage free and critical thinking instead of just repeating an echo chamber. If you can’t tolerate that, you are as intolerant as your worst enemies.

        not agreeing with someone who says 1+1=3 isn’t repeating an echo chamber, it’s living in reality

          Saying 1+1=3 is not critical thinking, it’s being a dumbass. Just like all those “doing your own researching” antivaxers. However, doing your own research really is good. That’s how you develop critical thinking skills. Without them, you are just a sheep. https://youtu.be/nD6hS8WV3ic?si=tTZZV2PzS5q6wpDn

          There is a big difference between 1+1=3 and questioning bullshit from your politicians. If you can’t see that then you are already a useful idiot
