I turn on cnn every day and have seen more disinformation than I can discuss here. Just look at the “horse paste” story with Joe Rogan or the “Russian disinformation” hunter Biden laptop.
You do realize YouTube promotes that content?
“Disinformation” is a Marxist / Soviet / Maoist term used to discredit the truth that hurts them. There may be legitimate “disinformation”, but who determines that?
That’s why we have free speech, the US entrusted people to decide. Generally, people can, what’s currently being censored are often not lies.
Please don't whatabout this. Unless CNN also amplify genocidal speech, those are really not the same. And as the GP said, Facebook is kind of a town square - you don't agree with CNN, you don't watch it. Many people need to use Facebook to interact with family, friends, community.
