Do you think the American right wants Twitter/X or Truth Social to be responsible for misinformation?


The law can be applied selectively.


Even better, there can be no law at all and the government (Office of the President) and law enforcement (FBI) can covertly apply pressure directly to the C-suite to have the “wrong” information suppressed on each platform.


If you forgo the rule of law, and suspend the 14th amendment. But not a democratic society, under a dictatorship it's a given... I guess you get what your society votes for though.


So dictatorship. This would mean that whoever controls power, controls how the law is applied.

Not what I call sustainable governance.
