Facebook is thinking about removing anti-vaccination content as backlash intensifies over the spread of misinformation on the social network

This can be said for the opposite as well though. The American revolutionaries would not have been able to spread their message had the press been more regulated in favor of the British the revolution may not have happened. Part of the whole foundation for why we have free speech in America is because of John Peter Zenger who printed newspapers critical of British rule. Now would the revolution have still happened if the media was more strictly regulated? Perhaps, but inversely it could also be said about Hitler's rise if the media were more regulated in Germany at that time. Your argument of free speech leads to Nazi Germany is outlandish to say the least.
