Is there a censored fallacy?"Social media are censoring conspiracy theories, therefore the conspiracy theories must be true." People X are censoring people Y, therefore what people Y claim must be truth. |

Part one is about how science works even when the public thinks it doesn't. Part two will certainly ruffle some feathers by offering a reason- and science-based perspective on issues where political correctness has gone awry. Part three provides some data-driven advice for your health and well-being. Part four looks at human behavior and how we can better navigate our social worlds. In part five we put on our skeptical goggles and critically examine a few commonly-held beliefs. In the final section, we look at a few ways how we all can make the world a better place.

The claim is essentially that social media companies don't want their users posting facts and things that are true. This is just ridiculous... and a non sequitur The fact that something is censored, does not mean that it is true and the one censoring does not want the truth revealed. Although that is one reason for censoring (like a private company removing complaints in comments from their website), there are many more legitimate reasons. The reasons needs to be established with evidence, not simply asserted. |
