Resignation Letter
&quot;And so self-censorship has become the norm.&quot;<p>This might be the most ironic and most dangerous effect of this &quot;right think&quot; regime: that the free expression and exchange of ideas is thwarted in advance because one doesn&#x27;t want to deal with drama, fight, or insults that come with saying something not in lock-step with the prevailing group-think.  This blunts the curiosity of the intellect and silences all true disciples of knowledge and science if what they say -- even if they have the math to prove their point -- contradicts the currently popular &quot;common truth.&quot;<p>For this to be happening at what was THE preeminent example of American freedom of the press is chilling... and Orwellian.
