Meanwhile, moderators at "rubber ducks floating in sinks enthusiasts" and "small cats with big katanas enthusiasts" and ... etc. have declared themselves guardian of some endangered truth.

Having spent millennia trying to get better discrimination, including intellectual, there seems to be now answers where earlier we had doubts: everything is easy, truth is clear, and the qualifications required to see it with solid grounds are apparently negligible. Big /S

And especially, what have rubber ducks cats and katanas have to do with medicine and virology etc.

Socrates should be back to show an unexpectedly large part of humanity "Are you really sure?". Critical thinking should come with basic education.

Edit: it seems as if a new club like "Private citizens with responsibilities [billboards] but different responsibilities [even cats] for the defence of responsible truth" has formed - this is the idea.

And I find it appalling that there seems to be an assumption with that «responsible truth»: the idea, even explicit in some cases, that doubt is dangerous for society. (And what is the cost of the opposite?) With the sibling idea that people must be protected, and they must be protected from exposure to complexity, and ultimately sheltered because incapable of rational thinking (real position expressed almost literally by involved parties). (They are supposed to be scholarized, exclamation mark.)
