NYT Op-Ed Calls for Complete Silencing of All Conservatives, Forever… Because Liberals Can’t Win When Public Debate is Tolerated
By: Ethan Huff / Natural News
Should free speech be limited or even silenced whenever the viewpoints being expressed are deemed inadequate, uninformed, or lacking in merit by “highly educated” college professors? The answer is yes, according to Bryan W. Van Norden, a professor of philosophy at Wuhan Universityin China, as well as Yale-NUS College and Vassar College.
In a recent op-ed he wrote for The New York Times, Norden attempts to make the case that freedom of speech should end where ignorance begins – or at least his private interpretation as to what constitutes ignorance. In this case, Norden sees conservative viewpoints as being ignorant, and wants conservatives not to have a voice when it comes to influencing public opinion.
In Norden’s view, only people like himself – the “properly educated,” as he puts it – have the capacity to mull through conflicting information and determine what’s true and what’s false. Because of this, conservatives who present information that he believes is false shouldn’t be allowed to do so any longer because there are apparently too many “improperly” educated people in the world that might fall for it.
Keep in mind that Norden’s definition of false information is simply information with which he disagrees. Illustrating this are two examples of “false” information that he presents in his article: The idea that the infamous photo of the crying illegal alien girl was staged, and the belief that the official story about what took place during the Sandy Hook school shooting might not be entirely true.
Sponsored solution from the Health Ranger Store: The Big Berkey water filterremoves almost 100% of all contaminants using only the power of gravity (no electricity needed, works completely off-grid). Widely consider the ultimate “survival” water filter, the Big Berkey is made of stainless steel and has been laboratory verified for high-efficiency removal of heavy metals by CWC Labs, with tests personally conducted by Mike Adams.

As we recently reported, the TIME cover photo of the crying alien girl was, indeed, fake – something that even TIME itself now admits. And as far as Sandy Hook goes, there remains a whole host of unanswered questions about this strange incident that any rational, non-biased person has no choice but to admit are completely valid.
Liberals like Norden think they’re the only people on earth enlightened enough to understand facts and truth
But Norden doesn’t acknowledge any of this. In his opinion, the little girl in the pink jacket is, in fact, a migrant who was separated from her parents by the meanie Trump administration. And Sandy Hook happened exactly the way the government says it did – even the parts that don’t make a lick of logical sense.
It’s the epitome of elitist patronizing, illustrating just how high-minded liberals like Norden are when it comes to matters of fact and truth. In their deluded minds, people like Norden believe that their own personal truths – the way they see the world – is the ultimate truth, always. And anyone who dares to disagree by presenting an alternative argument is just some ignorant dolt spreading misinformation.
But it doesn’t work, as revealed by The Daily Caller‘s Ben Shapiro. In a well-crafted critique of Norden’s self-aggrandizing manifesto that basically calls for censorship of conservative voices, Shapiro reveals many of Norden’s grossly illogical positions, including his belief that there’s no single way to think about something rationally.
This is a truly ironic position for Norden to take, since he apparently believes that he and other people just like him hold a corner on truth. It’s simply the latest tactic of Ivory Tower lunatics like Norden who recognize that their influence on society is starting to wane, which is why they’re increasingly lashing out at the opposing viewpoints that are rapidly gaining ground in their place.
“In the end, Norden isn’t making an intellectual case for general societal disapproval of a particular position,” concludes Shapiro. “He’s expressing a primal frustration with the fact that his arguments aren’t winning. And thus he wants to change the rules of the game …”

It isn’t only Conservatives that spread Fake news…
You know when there are conservatives that state that Obama is a muslim, comuunist, non USA birthcitificate holder…. You actually need proof.
And you’ve posted similar articles
we have obama whose wedding ring “which he wore before he got married” has a Shahada which is the first of the Five Pillars of Islam, we have obama on record saying he’s would defend islam. His alleged biological father was muslim, his step father was muslim, he was educated in a muslim school. obama’s self professed favorite sound is the muslim call to prayer.
The birth certificate is a MULTIPLE LAYERED PDF,.. multiple experts around the world have all agreed that it’s a forgery!
Can you disprove their evidence? NOPE! you’ll just ignore it because it doesn’t support you “FEELINGS AND BELIEFS”
Bill ayers co-founded the Weather Underground, a self-described communist revolutionary group. Ayers raised money for obama in his living room.. How often to communists raise money for non communists who run for office again? Obama’s child mentor frank davis was a communist
But hey, it’s all coincidence, right?
right, so what have you been doing all those years not going to court with your proof?
But taking it a step back….
Of course there is only 100% factual news on BIN. Especially the cancer cure treaments
Have enough proof we don’t need to investigate further. We need to lock his ass away were decent society never lays eyes on him again.
Government theft, aiding and abetting the enemy, all the way down to owning multiple social security cards which is a felony we have proof. Which by the way is a felony. You don’t know his real name. Maybe you missed his speech in Kenya? Maybe you missed hearing about the plane loads of cash to Iran? Maybe you haven’t been paying attention at all and are running your mouth.
The trainloads of money to iran is the money withheld that was inted for IRAN but blocked by the various embargoes.
The US didn’t own it in the first place
