Of course you are allowed: you just did it here, and nobody prohibited it.
What you seem to request is that nobody is criticizing your stance. But why would you be entitled to that?

You're not banned, you're just not welcome to say it, you will be treated as pariah for saying it, you will get downvoted to death, and if a discussion happens to grow around such a viewpoint, it will be in all probability marked "dead". >What you seem to request is that nobody is criticizing your stance. No, what I request is that people give thought to such propositions and argue with counter-arguments as opposed to facile dismissals and outrage...
- wsy 7y agoAlready the parent didn't make a big effort to argue, it was more like literature ("progress is an illusion"), paired with a very far-fetched conclusion from the second law of thermodynamics. On the latter, a proper counter argument was given. You didn't argue at all yet, so it is not really a surprise that nobody gives counter-arguments.
