Answering it has to be done off course, and I agree. But answering does not counter propaganda backed by the wealthiest, most powerful people and organizations on the planet. I'm also not sure that openly censoring, or at least labeling, propaganda is a a bad thing. It may not be a good thing either, but perhaps not quite as bad as allowing propaganda to run rampant through a society.
