Censorship of dissidence discussions due to "misinformation," "disinformation," and only allowing "science."
Our science institutions and media are just as corrupt as our politicians; that is why critical thinking should be encouraged instead of more censorship to baby the people.
Then who? You, perhaps? If garbage isn't taken out we end up with extreme right insanity like injecting bleach for covid treatment. What you're pushing for is literally called anarchism and it's childish af.
I read a little more about this situation, and I agree after all. I made a mistake by jumping into a discussion I knew little about. I guess there are some topics that may be quite harmful.
I'll be honest, this is close to what I was thinking initially. I believe the person who consumes information is responsible for checking if this same information is true. But now I see it may not be as simple.
I respect that you came back to share that.
