It’s not just about facts: Democrats and Republicans have sharply different attitudes about removing misinformation from social media::One person’s content moderation is another’s censorship when it comes to Democrats’ and Republicans’ views on handling misinformation.

Remember when Internet censorship was a right-wing business friendly cause because it was mostly about copyright?

Now the Internet is so influential that many other excuses for censoring it have been invented, many of which are or can be left-wing, like “misinformation”.

As someone opposed to censorship who thinks it is a good thing if we can exchange information through free association rather than having gatekeepers, I don’t know anymore who my ideological friends are.
