Sophists should be killed for our collective good.

Debate Information



So let me start by saying that sophists are extremely influential people who have the wrong ideas in mind. Given nowadays they have access to the internet we can safely say that they have much more reach and are indeed able to influence people and just the possibility of what they can convince them of is disastrous. So let us assume they are left alive, eventually at some point of time at least one sophist who was both extremely convincing and extremely popular would convince a huge percentage (>25%) of the population about something like religion and create a cult of people that large. Now what if the sophist convinces them due to these religious (or some other absurd idea) that those who did not understand (be tricked) what the sophist was saying were inferior in every way and don't deserve to live (or some other absurd stuff, who knows?
So I say, killing them would be a good idea since some similar event of this despicable nature is bound to happen eventually since the people aren't becoming smarter and we all know how in the past religious sophists used to convince ginormous number of people into believing in them when the internet did not even exist, when communicating was often very restricted. Therefore I think to prevent that catastrophic event from occurring precautions must be taken and either restrictions should be placed or the sophists should be outright killed. There, enjoy debating. Cheers ;) (This is just an amusing casual debate)
