You have read it all, in all its bogus glory, because our country's laws and culture often make it very possible, even lucrative, to publish misinformation.
For reasons that are hard to fathom, you saying that the people who published all this crap which you read and now believe were not allowed to publish all this crap. A sharper mind mind wonder how you were able to read it.
The grievance you are struggling to articulate is that you believe a lot of crap, and that too many other people don't, and don't want to share it. For example, Twitter decided that the Post's story about the Biden laptop violated a company policy about sharing hacked information. They did not stop the Post from writing the story, printing many copies of it, and sharing them with many, many people. Yet you're upset that Twitter had different editorial judgment than you would.
You're not mocking them. Try that instead.
But they're not off limits, sacred. No one actually thinks that at all. They just don't share your views.
You can absolutely tell that person to fuck off. You just have to live with the consequences, that they'll think you're an asshole. You're just complaining that you think things that other people disagree with.
Name one. You are so full of shit here that it's coming out your ears. You want to pretend that you are in the center, so you pretend Democrats are something they are not.
Here's what you said a few days ago about the US Open protesters:
It wasn't the tantrum that you objected to -- it was that they did it in the match. I pointed out that disrupting the US Open is something Trump would never do. And we all know he wouldn't.

1. You’re not saying anything. You’re reframing. As is your move. It’s been more than 20 years.
2. Of course you don’t believe anything about the laptop. You want to appear above it all, but you’re ultimately emotional.
3. I don’t need to mock you here. You’re emotionally on one side. Hence the hysteria on “both sides-ism.”
4. They’re absolutely off limits. You can’t poke fun at DEI and collect a check in any large corp or agency.
5. You’ve a position. You just want to seem above it all. We both know that. Your issue is my issue. You can’t admit it. The difference is, I now realize I’ve never really had a position. I’m actually what I am, which I’ll have to deal with. You’re playing rationalist. Nobody likes a pose.
