"Let people take charge of their own timeline, we do not need people deciding for us what we are allowed to see."

That's missing the point totally.

If someone is discrminated against, or abused, or beaten, or even killed... they can't opt out of that. There is no block button they can use to avoid those things happening to them in real life.

If we allow toxic lies to spread on social media, it leads to horrific things happening to innocent people in real life, people who may not even use social media at all:

These kinds of deadly lies need to be stopped at source.
