That’s what I just read. Because we know “calling it out” doesn’t work unless the person calling the bullshit out has a relatively close relationship to the individual.
We also know that not taking these individuals down gives them a much larger audience to reach. A much larger platform.
Also, the entire reason we have consumer protections agencies like the FDA is because generally speaking consumers can’t know on their own if something os safe or effective. Your argument here is patently foolish and absolywill kill people.
Why? To protect “rights” they don’t even actually have? Remember: social media is not actually public. They’re a private, for profit company and they maintain the right to take down any content they deem inappropriate.
It’s perfectly within the FDA’s mandate to point out content the agency deems inappropriate, and ask them to take it down.
Just as it’s within their mandate to ask Walmart to stop selling vitamin pills if it deems them to be dangerous.
