> A strong democracy doesn't need to fight "fake news" legally and doesn't need their own propaganda

your argument to me sounded like : > Brave people don't fear heights, you are brave and hence you should jump from empire state building. And you don't need protection, remember you are brave.




Since you are straw manning the argument, brave people should be protected from their foolishness by banning rock climbing and base jumping. How does that sound?


Your analogy is again flawed. Brave people are not banned, they are free to do rock climbing and base jumping.

A specific unrelaible/untrusted tool and equipment they use for adventure is banned. You are arguing as if people are banned. But they are not.
