Who determines, if not yourself, what is and what isn't misinformation?

My point is, if you let someone decide for you that, then you're letting it up control to an authority besides yourself. People should be able to discern for themselves what they want to believe or not.

On the other hand, I'd like to see something akin to Elon Musk's Pravda suggestion, where people criticise journalists, news organizations and articles openly.

I'm against censoring anyone, even the likes of Alex Jones.
