Also wrong.lol you never seem to have anything but sniveling. The 'virtual monopoly shctick' is going to court soon, so obviously there is a lot to it. They're no different than the railroads or Standard Oil or any number of Trusts formed over the last two hundred years. Like I said you really have no clue at all about the issues or what the government is supposed to do and not do.
How long have you been a socialist?lol you never seem to have anything but sniveling. The 'virtual monopoly shctick' is going to court soon, so obviously there is a lot to it.

Social media are nothing like the railroads or Standard Oil.
The internet is infinite with ample opportunities for communication – the notion that social media are monopolies is as ridiculous as it is wrong.
Just because rightists incorrectly perceive social media being ‘mean’ to conservatives doesn’t justify unwarranted, un-Constitutional ‘regulation’ of social media.
How long have you been a socialist?
Yes, disinformation should be countered ...
The "virtual monopoly" bullshit is the go to excuse for socialists when they want to nationalize something. And now Trumpsters are playing the same game - just because Twitter was mean to their hero. Pathetic.How long have you realized you can't think for yourself?
They have to do it in any case. Lying and manipulating facts is a fraud, it is formally illegal.Who should counter it? More specifically, should it be the government?
That's not what we're talking about. As you point out, fraud is already illegal.They have to do it in any case. Lying and manipulating facts is a fraud, it is formally illegal.
Ok, then that brings us back to my original question. Who should in be charge of countering misinformation?The problem is that some of these frauds are corrupt and are associated with the authorities themselves and the politics of some groups that supported by the state apparatus.
The Internet is a powerful means of spreading information, but it's also a power means of spreading dangerous misinformation. And when that misinformation is accepted as fact and innocent people act on it and die is this not analogous to screaming fire in a crowded auditorium where there is no fire and many are trampled to death.
I believe that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. However, there is a big difference between, the statements of opinion and fact, and between news and editorials. Just as there is a big difference between the statements, "In my opinion, we had many deaths due to covid-19 vaccines in the US. " and "5,250 people in the US have died due covid-19 vaccinations" The first statement is a personal expression of opinion and carries far less weight than the second which is declaration of fact.
IMHO, if we do no find a way to stop the spread of dangerous misinformation, it will eventually lead to government controlling media, not because of some sinister clandestine organization or some world goverment, but because the people will demand it.

IMO its not a freedom of speech issue. If you break my rules while in my home I reserve the right to kick your ass out of my home. If you want freedom of speech on the internet start your own platform.

No. I dont have to. You weren't raised in a barn so I expect your ass to act like it. If you dont you will get your ass booted.But do you STATE BOLDLY, CLEARLY, and HONESTLY all of your rules BEFORE people enter your home?
If i did, no one is forcing your ass to come to my house.Do you continually change, alter, and misinform guests with decieving rhetoric, corporate psycho-babble, and political jargon that means absolutely nothing.....as Facebook and Twitter do??
It doesn't really matter. In the end, I have the right to kick them off my property.But do you STATE BOLDLY, CLEARLY, and HONESTLY all of your rules BEFORE people enter your home? Or are you like everybody else and expect them to read your mind?

Strength isn't always bad. if you do not stop the predator, he will eat all the animals, but he will not stop himself. If you do not stop the sex maniacs, they will rape and eat all the children. The United States has adopted the correct concept, Europe has adopted the concept of "educating", but it is immoral and does not actually workNope...only incitement to actual violence should be stopped.....
