The world is a constant battle of rights and wrongs. Getting something wrong, is a major part in arriving to something right. Now society wants to shun, filter, and cancel all the "wrongs", which removes skepticism of the popular "rights".

What is the scientific process if not an attempt to filter and “cancel” wrong ideas, and propagate the right ones?

Ideas will be attacked relentlessly by society until proven useful. That’s how it all works
