Huh? Lots of places, read USMB or listen to radio. TV is tamer as its audience is broader. But what is your point?

And using words like 'feminazism' usually stops any interest as one knows you are in ideologue world.

"Liberals and progressives have been slow to realize that their preferred vocabulary has been hijacked and that when they respond to once - hallowed phrases they are responding to a ghost now animated by a new machine, The point is not a small one, for in any debate, especially one fought in the arena of public opinion, the battle is won not by knock - down arguments but by the party that succeeds in placing its own spin on the terms presiding over the discussion. That's what the conservatives in and out of Congress have managed to do with old war horses like "individual" and so long as they are allowed to get away with it, the opposition will spend its time insisting that it too is for the individual or for color-blindness or equal opportunity - and before we know it all the plovers will be dead and all the subcontractors will once again be white." Stanley Fish, 'The Trouble with Principle' (How the Right Hijacked the Magic Words)

My point is it's not the first time. Certain things are hard to question.

For example, somebody ask whether black seed cures everything. Muhammad claims that it's true and many Muslim scholars claim it's true.

Somebody asks that in sceptic stackexchange and the question is closed for being too obvious, the asker is accused of trolling.

Look at the question in that stackexchange. Is there any thing I can do to make it better?

Yes, there is something you can do. You can utilize the Internet to perform your own objective research of the topic that concerns you rather than taking the easy route and hoping someone else will give you the answer to your question. For example, if you click on the link in the preceding sentence, you'll obtain the following documents and document portals that may point to an answer to your question:
Performing a bit of secondary research on your own will be a much more informative and comprehensive way to obtaining your answers. Then you'll have no need to be concerned with stack exchange sites, which, like forums, are good for obtaining anecdotal input and opinions from strangers, but generally lousy for obtaining solid, rigorously developed information about the world in which we live.

What you fail to realize is that MLK's quote applies to you. All of the race-based political correctness that you espouse is an anathema to everything he preached about race relations in this country.

It is especially telling that you admit to "stopping any interest" when you hear certain terms used by others, yet you cite an article extolling the virtues of your own "magic words."

It's not about research. Answers from skeptic stackexchange are usually peer reviewed making it more credible than do your own research.

Whether that black seed can literally cure any disease is something very important.

If it can't, then Muhammad is a false prophet. Why should he said something so obviously false.
If it can, then Muhammad can actually get info from "higher being". It doesn't mean he's a prophet, but it's more likely.

Current scientific consensus is it's not. And that's kind of expected. Yet you found many sites claiming otherwise.

For people to close questions like that is kind of dangerous. I suspect the true motive is not to offend american's overlord, the muslim.
