So we should infantilize adults? I would agree but you used the words, “who decides?” There are articles that you publish here that would get you thrown off of Medium where people can call conservatives, racist, sexist, fascist, pieces of shit and it’s just fine. When someone says, “a transwoman is a woman, PERIOD!”, disagree and it is hate speech that causes trans people to die. When hate is “I don’t like that, or you for saying it” it becomes a matter of which way the deciders tilt.
Yes, it is not a good thing when people believe fabulous bullshit, but anyone who thinks that only one side of the political spectrum is full of crap, they are unfit to be deciders. Algorithms seem weak at discerning obvious satire, or they don’t like it because satire and ridicule are effective and it’s making the wrong people look like idiots.
