Also, curtailing free speech doesn't rid us of or even diminish misinformation. On the contrary, it empowers misinformation. Because it concentrates information into the hands of a very few, and more and more people will trust and assume most information is correct. And then those few people in control of information can tell you - or "let you see" - literally
anything.
This is pretty much common sense but I guess you have to be not a moron to grasp it.
Sorry to derail the thread but that caught my eye and it bothers me.
I'm done now.
