I must say, as a fellow 🦅conservative®🦅 it concerns me on free speech grounds to see comments deleted just for pointing out the "scientist" in the article is funded by Charles Koch.
That's a fair criticism, and I gratefully accept it. But the user who posted it was, as far as I gathered, not a conservative. This magazine is meant to be a place for conservatives. Please see the Mission Statement. This is not a place for leftists, who outnumber us 1000 : 1 in the Fediverse, to discuss or debate. A political debate magazine would be more appropriate for that. If you'd like to present a conservative critique of this article, the petition it's written about, or that particular sponsorship alleged from this leftist source, you're freely welcome to do so.
I suppose the true libertarian position would be to say "all magazines must be open to all content." But I am not a libertarian, and this is not a libertarian magazine.
Like any magazine other than m/random, this one has a topic. And that topic is conservative perspectives. You have the rest of the Fediverse to discuss anything else.
Within the realm of conservative perspectives, everyone is free here to speak openly.
