Canadian cogitations about politics, social issues, and science. Vituperation optional.
My team – the Left – used to be all about free speech and the rigorous debate of ideas within the public sphere. Now, to find an opposing viewpoint on transgender ideology where does one go? In this case Michael Knowles and YAF?
This where “no debate” gets us – giving the commons and the intellectual high ground to the Right.

Exactly. This is why there’s truth to the claim from many people that they didn’t leave the Left: the Left left them.
When legitimate criticism and concern is voiced only by those outside a party or position, that’s a red flag that something isn’t working within, that authoritarian dysfunction has taken over liberal function. When defense of liberal values comes only from the Right, we know there’s a great swath of people who have no public voice or representation. This is how unprincipled populism arises.
And the Left is doing it to itself and disconnecting from its base who will then vote for an alternative… ANY alternative. And we know how that works out: you’d think the election of a Trump or Bolsonaro would demonstrate why giving in to the illiberal Left and going along to get along and self censoring is a Really Bad Idea.
