It's a fact that COVID did not leak from a Chinese lab, right?[/quote]

That one falls in the "broken clock is right twice a day" category.   Note that the exact same people who ran around saying COVID leaked from a Chinese lab (without evidence) also said:

- COVID is just a hoax engineered by the government to control people: FALSE

- The vaccines contain microchips: FALSE

- The vaccines alter your DNA: FALSE

- The vaccines cause severe side effects and are worse than COVID itself: FALSE, and proven instances of severe side effects were EXTREMELY rare (like one in a million, and you were 32 times more likely to end up with myocarditis if you were unvaccinated and got covid than if you were vaccinated

- The vaccines are not effective: FALSE

- We should not give the vaccines to children:  FALSE - turned out that vaccinated kids were 80% less likely to end up in the ER than vaccinated kids

Don't dare get all self rightous over being accidentally right with ONE conspiracy theory out of the DOZENS that you were ABSOLUTELY WRONG ON.[/quote]

DP.
Please.  The government should not be in the business of restricting the speech of others UNLESS it is threatening or dangerous.  Expressing ones opinion on vaccines and the efficacy of them is NOT a reason to restrict speech.  
BTW - I have believed all along that the virus originated in a lab and I don't buy into the other crap you wrote - except that the vaccine is not necessary for healthy children.  RSV is much, much more dangerous to children.  Covid - not so much.  
I also have believed from the start that masks don't really work at containing the virus - which turns out to be true. 
And, then there is that "6 feet" rule which was also a bunch of bunk.  
All kinds of information has been censored by the govt which has turned out to be true.  They need to stay out of the business of restricting speech since it is - you know - against the law.  [/quote]

Why don’t you ask all the Asian Americans who  got physically assaulted if that speech was dangerous or not. [/quote]

You do understand that Trump was in charge at that time. If the government could censor the media, it would have been official government policy that COVID was of Chinese origin. Any contrary opinion would have been censored as disinformation. [/quote]

But covid did originate in China.  [/quote]

You had no evidence of a lab leak when you started pushing that conspiracy theory.  Refer back to the response above:

conspiracy theories are protected by the first amendment, babe. [/quote]

Not when they harm people.

And why is it SO DAMN IMPORTANT for you people to constantly, willfully spread vicious, harmful and destructive lies?  Why do you insist on being so vile and destructive? [/quote]

The problem is that the government should not be censoring information or opinions. 
The other issue is that much of what has been censored has been proven true.  And, it was censored at the behest of our government.  
And, it wasn't JUST about Covid.  [/quote]

Get off your dishonest high horse.  FAR more of the COVID BS was proven FALSE than was proven true.  And that continues to be the case with much of what comes from toxic pundits and politicians.

The bigger problem is that we have far too many dishonest and toxic people in our society who have nothing positive to offer, so instead they try to drag everyone else down and destroy them with their lies rather than trying to be more positive, constructive and productive.[/quote]

I would argue with your first statement. 
But, even if it were true...... the government has NO AUTHORITY to censor the speech.  NONE.

There is something to your last statement.... I remember what happened to the Covington Catholic kids a few years back when the left tried to smear them with lies.  It was horrendous.  [/quote]

How about you stop defending lies and liars.  How about you stop defending people who are destroying America.  [/quote]

How about you get just as outraged at the government violating the 1st amendment rights of citizens.  [/quote]

Yeah that wouldn't be happening if people stopped telling so many toxic lies.  If you're worried about people having to face consequences for lies then maybe you should focus on the lies.[/quote]
