"In your idealistic world of free speech, the innocent pay the price for the freedom to spread lies and deceit."
I'd replace 'innocent' with some combination of 'gullible', 'ignorant', or just 'stupid'.
We have a tried & tested strategy for dealing with stupid people - it's called education.
- pjc50 8y agoNo, you're mischaracterising this. Gullible people believe the lies, but they're not necessarily the victims, they are more likely to be perpetrators. A lot of the nastier cases (e.g. Rwanda, Rohingya) the innocents are those murdered by the gullible.
