IMO, quite a lot of "freethinkers", both on the left and the right, are just conspiracy theorists or parroting someone who tells them they're freethinkers if they believe everything he says. Being a freethinker does not mean you have to discard all consensus. The need to think that "the establishment" or "the mainstream" is almost always wrong already makes your mind unfree again, does it not?
