   they-have-to   
      
   In a recent Fireside Chat – my weekly podcast for PragerU, half of which   
   is dedicated to my taking questions from (mostly) young people around the   
   world – a young man in his 20s asked how he was supposed to figure out who   
   is telling the truth and who isn't. He was undoubtedly speaking for   
   millions of his peers. Given the opposing positions one encounters on   
   almost every issue, how is one supposed to figure out which position is   
   right, and which one may not only be wrong, but a lie?   
      
   In addition to obvious suggestions – such as finding individuals and   
   institutions whom you trust, studying both sides of issues, learning as   
   much as possible and using common sense – I offered what may be the single   
   most important indicator of who is more likely to be lying.   
      
   It is not a perfect indicator of who is telling the truth – there is no   
   perfect indicator – but it comes close.   
      
   With rare exceptions, the party that calls for censorship is lying. People   
   who tell the truth can deal with dissent and different opinions. In fact,   
   truth-tellers welcome debate.   
      
   If this theory is correct – and I cannot imagine a valid argument against   
   it – it means that in virtually every instance of a left-right difference,   
   the left is lying.   
      
   There is no important area of left-right difference in which the left –   
   not liberals; the left – does not call for shutting down dissent.   
      
   Take the university. Everyone knows how difficult it is for a visiting   
   speaker to offer non-left-wing views on a college campus. Conservative   
   speakers are often either not allowed to appear in the first place,   
   canceled after being invited or shouted down while speaking.   
      
   That is an almost perfect indicator that the leftist ideas that dominate   
   campuses are false.   
      
   Now let's take another example, an area that until very recently one might   
   have said is the very home of truth – science, specifically medical   
   science.   
      
   The left-wing California State Assembly recently passed a bill, signed   
   into law by California's left-wing governor and approved by the state's   
   left-wing medical establishment, that any California physician who spreads   
   "medical misinformation" or "disinformation" could lose his or her medical   
   license.   
      
   Now, why was this law passed? Was there, for the first time in California   
   history, some outbreak of doctors "misinforming" their patients about   
   medical matters, thereby causing them harm?   
      
   Of course not.   
      
   The law was passed to stifle all medical dissent on issues related to   
   COVID-19.   
      
   So now, any physicians who suggest that patients in the early stages of   
   COVID-19 might benefit from taking hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin (both   
   along with zinc) could lose their medical licenses. Even if these drugs   
   were completely useless in preventing serious illness or death in COVID-19   
   patients – and many reputable doctors around the world believe they are   
   indeed effective – these drugs are among the safest medications in the   
   world. Both are on the World Health Organization's list of the most   
   essential drugs in the world. There was no scientific or moral   
   justification for threatening the licenses of doctors who prescribed them   
   for COVID-19.   
      
   There are, however, two primary explanations for the medical   
   establishment's ban on doctors prescribing or merely speaking well of   
   these two therapeutics. One is that former President Donald Trump promoted   
   hydroxychloroquine as a potential lifesaver, and if he promoted anything,   
   the left opposed it – even if it could save lives. The other is that if   
   these therapeutics were acknowledged to work, the vaccinations would be   
   rendered largely unnecessary, and Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson   
   would lose a great deal of money. The Centers for Disease Control and   
   Prevention, National Institutes of Health and state medical boards   
   essentially work for Big Pharma.   
      
   Based on the rule that those who censor are almost always lying, we must   
   come to the frightening conclusion that the American medical establishment   
   has been lying to us. That includes the American Medical Association, the   
   American Psychiatric Association and the Association of Children's   
   Hospitals along with the American Association of Pediatricians. The latter   
   two advocate, almost alone in the world, "affirmative" transgender care,   
   such as puberty blockers in minors and mastectomies on perfectly healthy   
   girls who say they are boys.   
      
   In its suppression of scientific dissent, the American medical   
   establishment mimics the medieval church's treatment of Galileo.   
      
   The left – in medicine, Big Tech, the mainstream media and in schools from   
   kindergarten through graduate school – not only censors anyone who denies   
   that "men give birth," but smears their reputations, labeling them as   
   haters, bigots, "anti-science" and inducers of teen suicide.   
      
   Truth is a liberal value, and it is a conservative value. It has never   
   been a left-wing value. From Vladimir Lenin and the Communist Party to the   
   contemporary university, the left has always suppressed dissent.   
      
   And for good reason. If dissent is allowed, the left loses its power.   
      
   And the left knows it. Colleges know that one conservative speaker can   
   undo four years of indoctrination in 90 minutes. And the medical   
   establishment knows that a few dissenting physicians can undo its entire   
   credibility.   
      
   That was my response to the young person who wanted to know which side is   
   lying: the one that censors and suppresses dissent.   
      
   The left.
