It seems that with some issues, there is an effort to prevent us from critically thinking. Pejorative terms like "conspiracy theorist" are used for those who challenge the status quo. You're told that you have to sacrifice certain liberties for the greater good and that you're a bad person if you question that. You're told to trust the science. And if you start asking too many questions or the wrong questions, people get upset. For me, those are red flags that warrant further scrutiny. Maybe I have contrarian tendencies, so when someone tells me not to do something, I want to do it. But it's also more than that; it's a healthy suspicion and skepticism.

It seems unusual that asking questions is discouraged, especially in matters involving my own health or certain freedoms I've always had. In today's day and age, it takes strength to continue to ask questions and challenge the status quo, and I celebrate those who do. Strength and a healthy sense of skepticism are crucial for protecting your health.

Have you noticed this sort of effort, or do you think I'm engaging in the types of conspiracy theories I'm referring to? What do you have a healthy sense of skepticism towards, and where do you feel more questions should be asked?
