Why does it need a complete restructuring? Just have an agency who’s purpose is investigating these specific crimes and then rely on regular cops to handle perpetrators.

Cops aren’t the same as say the FDA.

And there is harm when people take misinformed medical advice from people claiming to know better.

because things like libel

Why does it have to be like libel? Why not death threats? Advocating for an intellectual position on things like medicine can cause harm and should be regulated.

Sure, more cops is clearly a great solution!

I didn’t say that you cunt. Why can it not be like what they did with Alex Jones where he was throwing a bunch of conspiracies around school shootings and parents who had their children murdered started getting harnessed so Alex Jones ended up facing consequences. This isn’t “oh so you just want more police. Good.”

Why’s it unconsititutional? Freedom of speech doesn’t mean you can say whatever you want.

And there’s no agency for it? Then make one.

Make it illegal and prosecute those that wind up with an audience. You can’t stop everyone giving out bad advice but you can prevent people making it their career and building a large following.

I don’t think it’s a fundamentally bad idea by any stretch, but if it were implemented here in the US it would be instantly abused to dictate the political narrative.

I don’t get this logic of “yeah it’s a good idea but if we do it we’ll do it wrong.” Like okay… Then do it right then?

It’s like when someone advocates for higher taxes on the rich and someone responds with “yeah that’s great and all but the rich will just find loopholes” like okay. Then close the loopholes as well.

America has a guy in charge of the health department that says a bunch of wack shit. It’s not just influencers but people with positions of power.
