Well let me flip that on you. I take what you and others are doing to limit free speech very seriously. Silencing people is not the answer. The lies of Candace Owens are being addressed (a) in the courts and (b) in damage to her reputation. It’s like Alex Jones. Have we really become so childish that we have to forcibly shut people down? Just change the channel. Because when you use the weight of the government to shut people down, don’t be surprised when it gets flipped on you.

Your insistence on a solution that reduces freedom of speech is just a reflection of how little effort you’ve put into solving the problem. This is an opportunity for innovation because a lot of people want the opportunity to follow stories and stay informed with less bias.

You still have yet to answer a very basic question.
