		Social media should not allow algorithms to actively AMPLIFY disinformation to the public. If people want to post disinformation that's fine, but the way that these companies push that information onto users is the problem. There either needs to be accountability for platforms or a ban on behavior driven content feeds. People lying on the internet is fine. Social media algorithms amplifying the lie because it has high engagement is destroying our society.
