Dostoyevsky précised the above rather neatly: (He didn't, it's a fake quote).

"Tolerance will reach such a level that intelligent people will be banned from thinking so as not to offend the imbeciles."

So shut up and believe me and don't question me as I'm the expert,

Really bad advise.

I long for the day's of old when we were taught to question everything..

Nothing wrong with questioning as long as we are also reasoning.

I don't think that is really what that post was saying.

which days of old are those? people were much more 'obedient' in the old days - what the authorities said was gospel. people nowadays question a lot more than before.
