>Every human being is entitled to make claims

God this is so tired. No one is questioning anyone's right to free speech. What I'm questioning is the value of that speech and the humility involved in making claims. That's it.




> humility

This is an important value. Please re-read my phrasing:

- "I'd naively think"

- "I don't see"

- "I am skeptical"

I am using words of uncertainty and lack-of-knowledge.

The only claim I make with a certainty is "I have found <link> useful for addressing <personal experience>".


I guess Iā€™m not clear what you are looking to achieve. Were you hoping the op would stop providing amateur opinions online?


That leads nowhere. Everyone's sharing their opinions, the only solutions are to limit their freedoms or stop reading what they write.
