I'm not sure if there is a solution here. You can censor and control narratives but at the end of the day it's all window dressing.

I'm beginning to realize that there is a shocking widespread lack of rationalism among the world population and I'm toying with the idea of there being problems that can't be solved without deeper neurology. When a BLM activist says "defund the police" you can roughly translate this to "make life better for us". There is no adaptation to objective reality to these people- they don't process the calculus of what they are saying. So when Don Lemon says that something is "his truth", he is being sincere. You can't fight that with speech regulation.
