"The Inquistions didn't set out to silence #Galileo...it could have just assassinated him....Instead, the Inquisition persecuted Galileo, in a very high-profile manner
...The point of persecuting Galileo was to convince Descartes to self-censor... [and] "thousands of other major thinkers of the time wrote differently,...because they self-censored after the Galileo trial."
And this is exactly why the US so aggressively pursues #whistleblower like #Snowden and #Assange.
