Yeah it's a tricky one. I'm not really for the whole censorship side of things; but I do understand (and this ISN'T a Trump thing, this is for anybody in a high position of power) the checking of facts disseminated by a head of state or global body who is representing inaccuracies as factual and true; ie not stating an opinion, stating a fact, which leads to actions on other people's behalf. This would be somebody like Trump, somebody like the W.H.O. speaking on a pandemic, somebody like our Prime Minister. If they are using a platform to speak to their constituents then I do believe those statements should be factually accurate. Otherwise they need to be stated as opinions.

I just don't know if it's the platform's responsibility to do the job; certainly not without warning.
