While social media is full of fake news and misinformation, the lines between what does and does not fall into this category can become blurred over certain issues, due to intense political polarisation. With the Covid pandemic for example, some people labelled harmful effects of the vaccine as fake news / misinformation, when it turns out that there were some harmful effects potentially due to the vaccine. Too much social media regulation may stifle free speech - it is a fine line and a slippery slope.
