Believe me I do understand why it could be considered problematic. My disagreement stems from the idea that it’s better to have no policy rather than an imperfect policy or one that relies on some discretion.

My point in highlighting that disinformation centers around a few hot button issues is to reinforce that we’re not talking about some nebulous or opinion-driven debate; rather there are a few key disinformation strategies that take advantage of the “bullshit asymmetry” to poison real discussion.

I’m simply unconvinced by arguments that it’s too hard to identify and nip such malicious communities in the bud. Even less so by arguments that doing so is somehow a slippery slope.
