misinformation by responding to it, "This is wrong MFer," as opposed to trying to hide/ban it (except in those few cases where it is clearly a lie). Sorry.

A lot of times, so-called "misinformation" isn't really misleading, we just don't like it. If you don't like it and think the poster missed something or is misleading, tell others why they are wrong. Don't run to ban, Alert, hide, or whatever the platform calls it.

Don't think we can have a democracy by trying to hide cruddy opinions or ones that we just don't like.
