It’s not just about facts: Democrats and Republicans have sharply different attitudes about removing misinformation from social media::One person’s content moderation is another’s censorship when it comes to Democrats’ and Republicans’ views on handling misinformation.

    I don’t trust facebook to decide what is hate speech and what isn’t, if thats what you’re saying.

      Are you suggesting that large online spaces should have laws and police to investigate and enforce the laws? Of course this is already in place, but not at all enforced in the same manner as a public place.

        No, I don’t trust anyone to do that. Everyone should be able to judge for themselves.

          Except that, clearly, they can’t. Look at the republican base.

            Careful now, your about to say the quiet part (we think certain people are too deficient to think for themselves, so we enlightened should do their thinking for them) out loud. Humans don’t have a great track record of dragging the “unenlightened savages” out of their ignorance, kicking and screaming if needs be, and North Americans in particular.

              We did fight, and win, a world war about this. Those people got into hateful group think just like the republicans and we ended up doing something about it and saved the world from fascism.

      No, you don’t trust lIbRuLs, though Fox News can lie every second of every day and you’ll never criticize them
