It’s actually easy to see why I was downvoted. If you believe what is being said about the NYT it challenges a couple of core beliefs that many people (especially on this forum) might hold 1. Freedom of speech is not always a good thing. A free press reporting on topics like “but her emails” can have negative consequences, even if those journalists are acting in good faith. 2. People in the aggregate can’t be trusted to make sound judgements, even if that means democracy is built on shaky foundations. Give them all the information and let them take a call is a strategy that can backfire. Flat earth, anti vax, qanon are all ideologies with vast following online, regardless of how stupid they are. When you challenge people’s core beliefs, it hurts them. They respond with downvotes.
