What would that accomplish in the long run? Nothing but reinforce the perception of valiant warriors of free expression besieged by censorious lowlifes trying to silence their works of truth.
If you want to expose these works as falsehoods, you'll need to demonstrate that their claims don't hold up to scrutiny. And nothing will prove that more resoundingly than doing so while still managing to play by their rules.
Librarian here. Remember, we're notorious proponents of free speech. Rather than demanding censorship, I suggest you beat them at their own game. Say that as a "member of the community," you will be well served if they offered [*Johnny the Walrus*](https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/johnny-the-walrus-matt-walsh/1140575925) and [*My Body is Me!*](https://www.transgendertrend.com/product/my-body-is-me/) Go ahead and organize readings of the book as well. And if they refuse, cry censorship. Complain to the higher-ups. Hold their feet to the fire.
Which claim is more extraordinary? That the earth orbits the sun rather than vice versa? Or that there exists a conscious, sentient, omnipresent, noncorporeal, immortal being who compels all people to do evil?
If I saw that sign, I'd take the priority lane. If they confronted me about it, I'd say that I realized that I'm trans. And if they asked when, I'd reply "When I saw that sign."
Interesting. Of course, the studio behind Tom and Jerry cartoons had a clear motive for not ending the show, as they received money as long as the show continued. What do the political parties stand to lose by "ending the show"?
I'm not saying this comparison isn't valid, just that it could stand some further elaboration.
This is actually an interesting moral quandary. The medical professionals' refusal to treat this patient could certainly be seen as a breach of the Hippocratic Oath. However, they could argue that the patient's refusal to wear a mask endangered their own health, thus jeopardizing their potential to treat other patients; thus, knowingly endangering their own health could be seen as an indirect breach of the Hippocratic Oath. If all doctors disregarded their own health during a pandemic, there soon wouldn't be many doctors in a time when they are most needed. (Another way of looking at it: Would you accuse a doctor of breaking their oath if they refused to treat [the Toxic Lady](https://www.discovermagazine.com/health/analysis-of-a-toxic-death) without any PPE?)
In this scenario, however, I believe the patient should have been treated. The permitting of him to wear a mask improperly reveals the requirement to be a pointless formality.
Long story. It involves Japanese culture (particularly manga, anime, light novels, and visual novels), as well as a *Perry Bible Fellowship* strip. To sum up, though, a "weeb night" combined with the subverse v/MoviesWithGoats presumably entails a bunch of anime movies.

The only results an internet search (on multiple engines) produces for this are articles about how it's a hoax.
The more visibility we give to fake stories like this on here, the less people will be inclined to believe any true stories posted on here.

Hey, the only reason I know why is because I've played *Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders*.
...Wait. Does having played that also mean I'm old?

If I were in his place (and this really happened as it supposedly did and wasn't staged), this is what I would have pointed out:
\* This is a public space and I have every right to be here.
\* You are demanding control of dozens of square feet worth of space, and I'm only demanding a few. So who's more demanding here?
\* If you're so sure your viewers are that opposed to seeing strangers in your video, why are you shooting in public, in front of a bench?

"Climate change is so untrue, so patently ridiculous a concept, that flat earthers believe it!"
"Climate change is so real, so blindingly obvious and undeniable, that even flat earthers believe it!"
Guilt by association is considered a fallacy for a reason, people.
