I can't say that no speech online should ever be changed or removed. Some speech can be hateful or criminal. Bullies targeting kids. Doxxing. Engaging in crimes online. Purposeful lies to cause someone financial or emotional harm.
As far as I can tell, pretty much all politicians lie or dance around issues. It's kind of on us as voters to do our homework and never believe anything until it's verified as fact. Not by a biased fact checker, but by checking it ourselves. Buyer Beware
No government entity other than the courts should ever deal with speech that needs removing. The courts are there to protect us, not partisan politicians.
