We see this dynamic in Hollywood, Big Business, certain Colleges & Universities, and other areas in our social system. For many of these folks, the firm belief that they know better results in suppression of those who believe differently in the form of shutting down opposing views by banning participation. Facebook, Google (YouTube), and others in the information industry are vigorously practicing this method, and due to having virtual digital monopolies in these cases, are getting away with it.
