There is often a lot of misinformation on this site that lead us in counterproductive directions.

So... you want this place to operate like Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, & You Tube & only allow your point of view. Nah.

Nah. Pressing deport doesn't deport the person. It only reports the person.

Seems a little Orwellian. What if people mistakenly post misinformation or mistakenly deport truthful information? There is the "other" option. If it's a founded reasons then I'm sure it's just as effective. Deportation options aren't really that necessary.

Wouldn't it make more sense to make it "Fake News"?

Great so you want censorship here too now, right? because of "misinformation"... The least I think I would give is an option would be a community tag, or if enough people clicked probable misinformation or community questions you might get a tag at the top. but I'm not really onboard with that either because of those Twitter tags for "mis-information"... That would at least be a tag that would be authored by a large number of posters here, rather than one single ”trust and safety” type moderator. I'm just sick of censorship, if you want to talk out your ass, feel Free as far as I'm concerned. The lack of a downvote here removes another option... There's obviously a lot of shill content and straight up nonsense being posted here and not being taken down. I don't know that's my two cents, I'm just glad I'm not a moderator and have to figure this out.

Absolutely. I was just thinking the same thing when trying to deport some one for disinformation.
