Freedom of opinion in TS publications?

It's a great concern to me that a policy of "ignorance is bliss"
or "ignore it and it will all go away" seeming to be a part of a the
society's way of dealing with the CWL/NeoTheosophy issues.
A state of co-dependence has developed in the society imho and lack
of support for the freedom of speech of those who point out the
difference between the CWL and HPB/Mahatma's this is outrages beyond
belief.
(Unless I am mistaken and can be given some positive assurance that
this is not the case)
Does freedom of thought and freedom to compare different traditions
in the societies publications exist in the Societies mandate?
The hypocrisy of this state of "organizational culture" should be
unacceptable for any theosophical student no matter how you feel
about CWL.
I hope one day the society can not be so tied to a dogma and guru
worship that it will be able to become that which it was meant to be
with open Socratic dialogue in all its publications.
The irony is that the Theosophy in Australia magazine has just
published an article that criticizes the Secret Doctrine quite
strongly and to that I say GREAT!!! that's the true theosophical
spirit.
But why oh why not CWL ???
