I would have followed him on nostr, not because I agree with this position, but because open dialogue in an open society is the only way to correct misinformation. I once saw a news story in the 90's about a black dude who became friends with a white supremacist. The white supremacist changed his mind. This is the main reason I am against censorship. Privacy is necessary for an open society in the electronic age. We cannot have an open society in electronic discourse manipulated by digital overlords.

This is a genuine conundrum for me. When we do comparative suffering. Clearly palestinians and others in the middle east are suffereng and dying by the thousands , its unbelievable suffering. But one man who people kindof knew who he was but gets suddenly killed, it grabs everyones' attention. I think become desensitized by the mass killings because of the numbers. Still we dont want to encourage killing or violence. This is a weird thing we humans do when we are not in a dangerous environment already. Why do you say that Charlie was a genocidal science denialist? In what way??
