> I am tired of the praises of "free speech" when all we see is conspiracies, propaganda, cons, scams, ads, and billionaires censoring those they don't like and amplifying those they do like So you'd prefer something like the Chinese internet, where everything is rigourously fact-checked by the government and anything that reflects negatively on the government is censored? Because empirically that's what happens 100% of the time when you give the government the ability to censor media: it censors media that reflects negatively on it.
