More ‘independent thinking’ and ‘more debate’ is code for just invite the most racist and fascist people imaginable.
Actual independent thinking flows from rigorous and no string attached funded fundamental research. They produce actually interesting ideas which generate no controversy because they’re so foreign to the flattened ‘debate’ culture that these people purport to support.
But go ahead silence those who you oppose and boost those who happen to align with your fascist views.
Disgusting
