Unfortunately this may sound right but I believe you’re mistaken. Great example btw re Mars. But here’s a counter example that may prove my point: A lecture is being had about the proper methods for dealing with runaway slaves. There is hot debate about how many slashes should be given vs how much food is withheld vs other forms of punishment. A lone protester in the back of the room has the nerve to call into question the morality of slavery to begin with. Has the nerve to derail the discussion into whether or not slavery should even exist. Questions out widely held axioms. To me the most enlightening quote is: No social progress has ever been made that wasn’t at first widely rejected by the majority. Think about that. It means how can ever expect to make progress if dissenting ideas (even one’s that question fundamental axioms!) are not permitted to be discussed.
