Do you wonder why the candle in the dark is being snuffed out?

Why evidence, reason, clarity and critical thinking are being delegitimised?
Do you wonder why when you question people& #39;s assertions you are met with...

"no debate"
"you are literally harming people"
"educate yourself"
"your question is in bad faith"
"you are a literal nazi"
"you are denying my/their existence"
Why are you immediately unfriended on facebook with no explanation? Completely cut off?

Why are you insta-blocked on twitter and put on a block list?
The reasons why you appear unable to engage with so many people were described twenty tears ago by Sokal and Bricmont in their book "Intellectual Impostures" - the book that made me a & #39;sceptic& #39;.
They warned us of the take-over of academia by ‘critical theorists’. That take-over is near complete and has resulted in ‘woke culture’ that rejects debate and science. Entire generations taught to snuff out the candle.
In this essay, @ConceptualJames walks us through exactly what is going in their heads. If you are a bit older, like me, you may have missed this colonisation of academia. But you need to understand it. https://newdiscourses.com/2020/07/woke-wont-debate-you-heres-why/">https://newdiscourses.com/2020/07/w...
