Reply to comment by _______someone in Study of more than 2,400 Facebook users suggests that platforms — more than individual users — have a larger role to play in stopping the spread of misinformation online by giuliomagnifico

It is. But censorship isn't always a bad thing.

Societies have to decide what should or shouldn't be censored.

I could easily argue why in today's post truth world where any idiot can find an audience maybe we need more censorship

So you think child porn should be allowed.... Same logic

Or graphic murder on all tv stations

Irs should disclose everyone's tax returns

All that stuff is censored and protected because as a society we determined it's not acceptable for all the public to have

Maybe you should consider censoring your mind and it's 5th grade level of knowledge about censorship

The authority of a government to suppress the ideas that people express is always a bad thing.
