But how much do I trust the central authority that would be in charge of implementing that?
Personally, we, individual people, should just be calling out others spreading BS. There’s been more then a few times someone has brought me something fishy sounding, I’ve responded with “and did you hear about that on facebook?”
I don’t necessarily trust info that claims to have my interest in mind because that how con artists approach their marks. They find a common problem, then confidently proclaim that have the perfect solution.
It takes too much time and resources. A lie runs halfway around the world before the truth laces up it’s shoes.
Manipulators and liars need to be stopped by a higher authority. I’m fine with that authority being civil liability, the criminal justice system obviously sucks at it. Let’s get serious and stop letting this stochastic terrorism go unpunished.
Lose your dad to Fox News conspiracies? Should be able to sue Fox News for child support. Lose your husband to a mass shooting caused by some deranged Trumper that thinks Paul Pelosi is coming to take our guns? Should be able to sue trump personally for wrongful death. It’s not like Fox and Trump don’t know what the consequences are.
Let juries be the arbiters.
This problem isn’t going to be solved without financial liability or violence.
Well yeah that’s a problem of course but that doesn’t negate the reasoning I stated in other areas of this thread.
I’m not promoting trust in a central authority or government here that’s a separate problem that exists on an entirely different plane.
Yes you who probably has some amount of critical thinking skills can do that. The majority of young generational individuals today, cannot. Which largely negates the “well they should get gud” argument. It’s a systematic problem, you can’t solve systematic problems that way…
I’m not going to repeat myself though, my last paragraph in the previous message is a fairly succinct tldr. This is a principal that’s been applied and works across industries, and is critically important for building “safe systems”
Safe systems being systems that are designed to be operated and interacted with safely. There is a practical infinite number of safe systems that you can find examples of to further drive my point home. We can design systems that provide safety from human behavior and failings, the largest obstacle is usually both the political aspect and the aspect of individuals who refuse to acknowledge that safe systems are important.

Trust it as much as it shows itself to have your interests in mind, or how well you judge it to be working towards the intended purpose.

I said “shows itself to” not “claims it does”. Big difference.

Lol if you think it’s the young people who can’t do critical thinking, I’d like you to take a look at the Trump voter base.
