Why does that stuff need to be blocked or deleted? Most people, even very skeptical people, are smart enough to realize that stuff is BS. I mean what is all this clickbait outlier crap the media feeds everybody about that one poor sick covid kid who died? Then everybody thinks that kids are dying all over the place when that isn't even close to true. Should we ban all clickbait?

  Not saying it should be. I prefer no censorship at all, including threats of violence, gore, naziism, pedo RP, etc. But giving an example of the sort of thing people are wanting removed.

  >Why does that stuff need to be blocked or deleted? Most people, even very skeptical people, are smart enough to realize that stuff is BS. Define "most"? 20% of Americans believe the covid vaccine contains a microchip so they can be tracked. There are so many reasons that is even worse than thinking that it could cause you to be sterilized that I think anyone trying to claim "people know better" aren't being honest with themselves. https://www.vice.com/en/article/wx54yn/a-shocking-number-of-americans-believe-the-dumbest-covid-vaccine-conspiracy https://www.vice.com/en/article/wx54yn/a-shocking-number-of-...

    80% is most. And you can get any percent you want with bad low sample size polls. Come on.

    The average American thinks they have a 10% chance of dying if they catch covid. For many people this is off by almost 1000x! What kind of misinformation are people being fed to be so very far off? Why aren’t we doing anything about that? https://covid19pulse.usc.edu/ https://covid19pulse.usc.edu/
