As with all things on the left, they give it a name that on it's surface sounds like a good thing to the naive, and jen psaki literally was like "hey who would oppose this??"

Like "progressive", oooh, progress! That sounds great! What do they believe?
- "they believe that it's okay and actually a good thing for guys with big hogs to walk around naked in the girls locker room after dominating them in swimming!"
- "........Oh"

They showed this recent clip from some government function where a democrat senator or congresswoman or something (I didn’t recognize the lady) was questioned about a claim she made at a rally that police in America were hunting down and murdering innocent black people

When challenged she said “it was at a rally and I was speaking rhetorically”. Fair enough I guess. So would her claim be something the disinformation board would go after? We all know the answer to that one. Of course not. But it’s a claim that erodes trust in police, which could prevent someone from providing police information they need to solve a major crime. Or maybe prevent someone from contacting the police to save a loved one. So it could directly result in human suffering. But is not “disinformation” worth pursuing. Because it fits a political narrative

This isn’t an argument for the Ministry of Truth board, because it’s a stupid fucking idea and it WILL bomb in the polls. But just showing how easy it is to abuse such a thing
