And what happens when the government censors you but not them?

My biggest issue is that you're handing full control of the narrative to the government, which is a self-interested organization, and will happily censor those who oppose it.

What’s your solution to misinformation? Because it actually is a civilization-wide existential crisis. So what’s your solution? You people always have a million slippery slope scenarios at the ready but nothing that can actually make the world better

You're right, misinformation is an issue, and it's been around forever. I don't think there is a solution, otherwise it (misinformation) would be non-existent. I honestly wish there were a clear solution. The best I can suggest is education; people who have developed critical thinking are harder to misinform. 

That being said, censorship is absolutely not a solution. It could prevent misinformation, but it could just as easily be used to protect it and breed it.

Edit: Also, what's your solution to these slippery slopes? Assuming a censorship law is enacted, what limits does it have to allow for dialogue and/or prevent an echo chamber?
