Perhaps your individual situation is different? I'm American and also lost zero family members, though it fucked some of us up.
But I think it's a liberal brainworm to think protecting misinformation is important. It's a misunderstanding of how ideology works to think that simply being better-educated will solve the issue.
Yea America has pretty well proven that if you let people "do their own research" the majority of them are just going to believe bullshit that allows them to live their lives without confronting the consequences of their actions.
A bunch of people want to keep going out and getting their treats so they sought out information that confirmed their belief that they can do whatever they want and that makes them a good American and a free thinker.
Then a million people died
Thank God we have the freedom for half our country to refuse to wear a piece of cloth that could have saved people lives.
