I for one find constant links about the benefits without any freedom to actually discuss the trade offs incredibly tedious.
I’m a scientific individual, but I don’t appreciate getting nagged.
Edited to add:
I find the repetition of silly debates tedious, too. Like open source licenses, android, iOS, etc. But that doesn’t mean I don’t learn things from some of those debates.
Also, I want to know all the information and know that I know it. I currently know that attitudes like yours are keeping me from learning all there is to know about various vacccines. Because any information that could be interpreted negatively is verboten.
Edited to add one more thing: I was speaking about interesting scientific articles that reveal and discuss the downsides. You implied that I was talking about arguments under those articles being interesting. You do see the difference between those things, right? Banning information because some people react badly to that information is what I’m objecting to.
