You are allowed to believe and post anything not directly threatening. Like death and terror threats shouldn't be allowed.
And misinformation is only indierectly threatening when gone uncontested.
I have no problem with consensus (a la MSM) denoting it as misinformation. That doesn't outlaw or criminalize it, it just notes that, "This idea may be patently lacking in credibility."
May Allsides or Mediabias rate it as moonbat misinformation and devoid or truth if deemed as such.
Trump & Co. is allowed to say whatever crazy thing they want, but it shouldn't, in ANY universe, be a violation of Freedom of Speech, even if noted as false.
The false statements are not being stopped so much as having a consensus driven disclaimer added on. It seems like the anger is that people are daring to call their opinion false.
Should a ridiculous statement like "Haitians migrants eat dogs and cats" be allowed without scrutiny?
They're not Vietnamese. Its a different palette.
The lies from the left are more pernicious. I think you missed that part out.
