“Are you wondering what you’re supposed to think right now?”
You probably haven’t seen the last of this sort of thing, in one form or another.
Many around here, including the founders of this site and it’s sister, insist on strict rules about what you’re allowed to believe, and in some cases even what you’re allowed to think about. Despite once having very strong reactions against this kind of rule (rejection of them was almost a fundamental starting point), I think they’re essentially right.

Eliezer’s No One Can Exempt You From Rationality’s Laws, and Robin Hanson’s You Are Never Entitled to Your Opinion are a couple of examples.
