So I recently removed Facebook from my phone as I hate finding myself doomscrolling and being inundated with just utter nonsense.

What is really bothering me is people being accused of stuff, whether it's Trump is bad because he did this thing or some celebrity is a nonce or Starmer sucked Epsteins toes.

All this crap without ANY evidence. I'm sick of tired of randoms posting random posts all over the internet accusing people of stuff without showing the evidence. It's all social media, the news etc

What do you guys think of a new law that states you cannot make an accusation about a known figure (or anyone really) without including proof. This isn't to protect the left or right it's to stop all this slander of possibly innocent people.

Think, have you ever repeated something you read about someone that was bad and just accepted it without thinking well what's the evidence. Imagine if it was you.

Imagine I'm famous and someone replies to this thread saying I might be a weirdo or that I'm on some list. That in itself can change the perception of me when I've done nothing wrong.

Thoughts?

What if a victim of a crime has no evidence? They can't say anything?

No that's kinda different. For instance the "Epstein List". People keep posting pictures of people without context with him which apparently makes that person evil by default. It's madness

No way free speech is paramount BUT I'm talking about specific things of people trying to say somebody did something that they might not (probably haven't) done
