a free thinker ... within the realm of rational inquiry.

Yeah holocaust deniers also call themselves free thinkers, doesn't make it so. Enjoy your "free thought" under the moderation of authoritarian simps.

I don't agree with LaRouche, but he was indisputably a free thinker. His positions defy categorization, he could be considered a part of both the far left and the far right depending on the topic. He viewed history as a battle between Platonists, who believe in absolute truth, and Aristotelians, who rely on empirical data.

I'm not being moderated by those people anyway. I'm simply using the software they developed, which is open source and can be contributed to or viewed by anyone. I'm not a member of their community. If they want to get real crazy with it, I can simply block them. What's the issue?
