That's the whole fucking point. Neither Klein, nor I, nor you have any such "authority". Which is why our opinion on the matter is in no way censorship.

Do you see the authoritarianism there?
No. As I've said a zillion times before, you've got to cut back on your right wing and libertarian media consumption. This is crazy talk

That’s the core of political correctness.
The core of political correctness is making an effort to consider how what you say and how you say it affects others.

The better approach is to say, “Harris had Murray on, Murray said X, and here’s why Murray’s wrong.”
Why is Harris above criticism? Who gets to decide which parties can be criticized and which can't? Don't you see the authoritarianism in declaring certain parties above criticism?

Political views? We're talking about whether Harris should present the actual science on the question presented. He should, unless he does not care about misleading his audience. If he does not care about misleading his audience, I hope no one listens to him (and he's no better than Alex Jones).
