The problem isn’t speech itself — it’s deception, manipulation, and coercion. Censorship isn’t the answer, because giving the government the power to decide what is "propaganda" opens the door for abuse. That same power can be used to silence whistleblowers, dissidents, and independent journalism. The real solution is transparency (so people can see what's happening and how it's funded) and media literacy. Expose foreign propaganda, counter it with facts, and let people see the evidence for themselves. If a democracy is truly free, its people should be trusted to analyze information and make their own decisions — not have the government act as a gatekeeper of truth. Historically, when governments claim to be "protecting" the public by controlling information, it has led to more oppression, not less.
