Topic History of: Spiked/Oxford Union in defence of unpopular ideas

RightToKnow ..popular ideas aren’t really in need of protection - or, for that matter, a platform.

Rather, it is the unpopular idea, both throughout history and still today, that society most often seeks to snuff out and to censor. The mainstream has always done a pretty good job of looking after itself. What I’d like to put to you this evening is that even unpopularity justifies a platform. The batty, the marginal, the strange and the downright outrageous are precisely the sort of opinions we need to protect.
