Those are judgment calls based on context. Academia is a good place to research such things. It has stronger institutions to prevent misuse.
But calls for public self-censorship are trickling back into academia, stigmatizing the research itself. Truth is becoming disposable.

Censorship and stigma are different. People deal with stigma all the time. If your work is important, you can explain to your critics why.

Stigma sounds easy to 'deal with' until you face ideological discrimination in hiring, promotion, tenure, grants, collaborations, etc.
