Governments are elected by people, and are the best representatives of what the people want. You rather a foreign agent with questionable motives be the arbiter of truth, rather than the body that is elected more or less democratically?
- inglor_cz 2y agoI don't want governments to be arbiters of truth at all. Elected, unelected, I just don't want them to do this kind of job, much like I don't want a plumber to dictate the contents of my next lunch. The idea that governments should stick their fingers into anything they want is literally the definition of a totalitarian society.
- rbanffy 2y agoI don’t want Musk to be an arbiter of truth either, and I’m sure we can all agree how much of a terrible idea that’d be.
