The question you were answering:

> how we would establish a source of truth

Your reply:

> limit the reach of people with a history of making wildly unsubstantiated claims.

That's circular; to determine whether a claim is unsubstantiated, you need a source of truth.




When I replied the question was:

> Who gets to say what is factual?

To which my response was: "The people who already have absolute control over what you do and don't see in your feed."

The question was not "how we would establish a source of truth".
