Yes?

I don't know if it occurred to you, but just because a lot of people agree on something doesn't make it true. Most people believed the earth was flat 2000 years ago, yet it isn't.

That doesn't mean he's being censored. When you say something, people are going to argue with it. That's what we call "debate." The first amendment gives you the right to say something, but it also gives others the right to criticize you for it. It's a two-edged knife that's had a bigger impact on the world than anything else over the past few centuries.
