  <description>&lt;p&gt;After over a year of (mostly) avoiding controversial topics, Yoel and Mickey dive in to talk about orthodoxy, dissent, and "cancel culture." Does the narrowing of acceptable views make us dumber or does it represent a drawing of new moral boundaries that make us more kind? How does the silencing of dissent lead to self-censoring? Why does it appear like some people are given more permission to dissent than others? Is cancel culture leading to a right-wing backlash?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bonus: Why was the podcast account suspended from Twitter? &lt;/p&gt;
