    So you do believe in giving someone the authority to “decide” (or really just tell you) what objective reality is. But, what, only when the thing they tell you comports with your previous understanding of that reality?

      Let me put this in simpler language you’ll understand: I don’t think it is a good idea to empower the government, or some corporation to be the arbiter of what the truth is. Because they will inevitably abuse this power.

      It does not mean I reject the concept of objective reality, or our ability to learn it.

        I can’t take someone who is against all government regulations seriously.

          Do you want a Trump appointed judge to decide if what you are saying is misinformation?

          Replace Trump with the crazy person from your country.
