I did not expect that.

No wonder you hate the opinion police then. They have confidence in their beliefs and the balls to face down those who disagree with their beliefs. They aren't satisfied with having weak and pathetic beliefs that are only right inside their own heads; they want their beliefs to be reflected in objective reality. You on the other hand, no matter how well thought out your beliefs were, even if they were objectively correct, you would still be ashamed of them.

Is that really the only reason you are against people shutting down speech? Because you were believe that the opinion police should be just as pathetic and ashamed of their beliefs as you are of yours?

never said anything about shame

Insecurity, shame, is there a distinction you can make between them?

check out this greek guy, Sokrates, really cool dude.

Socrates is dead. It's impossible to critically interrogate his beliefs. I hold your beliefs in far higher regard. Its fine if you want to repeat what he said, but I'd much rather hear it from your mouth than from his works.

Please tell me, do you see a difference between insecurity and shame? Is that relevant to this discussion?

yes, it is so sad that he was killed by the opinion police. But don’t discriminate against dead people. You can tell ChatGPT to answer like Socrates would and ask your questions.
