Thing is, the big social media platforms are deciding what speech their products consume. The algorithms seem to be designed to feed into division and biases. It's absolutely no business what conversations others are having and yet this precise metric is being leveraged to abuse people into generating income. You and I can ignore social media but it seems to have caught an alarming majority in its wake. Add in misinformation and encouraging division and it's a troubling state of affairs, especially when it is proving to be so very profitable.

I definitely agree that a morality police can only make things worse, but a fact police may help :-)
