I'm mostly fine with you posting here. I qualify it because you do post a lot of misinformation and misrepresentation of the position's of other posters and of liberal positions in general.

The 'straw man argument' shit in particuar really gets tiresome.

That said, I appreciate the 'Millsian' view on the matter because I really do enjoy the "clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error."

I've joked that if the 'collisions' were as those referred to in car insurance policies, My deductibles would be out of sight.

But the Google Machine never fails to give me clearer perceptions and livelier impressions of the truth. So thanks for that.

But the peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it.

If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. [22-3]

I post here to bring some balance to the thread

Lies never balance the truth. Of course, FAUX has you believing that lies are just as valid as the truth as long as you repeat them often and loudly enough.

One of your favorite lies, that H. Clinton lies as much as trump, is so stupid that people normally don't even respond to it any more. That is not balance... it is just garden variety disruption.

AZ, The truth of the matter is I post here to bring some balance to the thread as this thread is very prejudiced with anyone who disagrees with the view here.

You don't bring any balance to this thread. You're in a dangerous cult and post nothing but lies as is pointed out to you daily.

You post stuff from crackpot websites and "stupid" seems to be your favorite word.

Almost every article you post can be disputed and proved to be wrong so why do you insist on posting lies? That's not balance, it's propaganda.
