Democracy as in reasonable discourse, not insane rants or total lies.

I'm with you 100%, but it's also valid to question who defines "reasonable". We'd be happy if the people we agree with define that favorably, but by the same token that's leaving room for malicious intent to redefine "reasonable" to something harmful.

Just food for thought. (I can definitely get on board with censoring straight up lies coming out of our so-called leaders' mouths, though!)
