The "left" may eat up each other since they are in a fighting mood/"on the dark side". Natural help is God's way. Drugs may come from natural things. They want all to think drugs/vaccines are the only way to heal, but natural help has always been there for people/pets. I am amazed Dr. Mercola's dog lived to be 20 years old due to natural help it seems. People/pets can heal. If Conventional medicine can't help you since they don't know how to use natural help they pretend you need to see a psychatrist...that YOU are the problem not them. Many people are learning natural help and know it works awesome.

I get my information from many sources even with the censoring/blocking of information as they try to keep a monopoly. Covering symptoms is not real help. Fixing the root cause is needed. Those who tell the truth which they don't want you to hear maybe censored, but truth finds a way to people. Dr. Mercola maybe could talk to Trump who maybe in power again soon and may promote the natural way and get rid of things hurting people like chemicals/pesticides/GMO/Roundup and alternatives to that and other vaccines which are causing Autism etc. Never give up! God is real! Tell others the truth. Thank you Dr. Mercola for standing up to what is happening and exposing the corruption. God bless!

The White House is taking uniltaral power into their own hands which does not legally belong in their hands. Further, it is power against the free press, a deep violation of the very first amendment of the US Constitution. We have a first amendment in that exact position of the US Constitution, for terribly important reason. Free speech is a fundament of democracy. If they don't know this, they don't belong in public office. And the very fact that they are targeting free speech as a priority mission, having to do with alleged spreading of "misinformation", is a sign of plans and more censorship ,more bias and more dictatorship afoot. Watch out. We simply can't let this happen. We must act peaceably, but we must also act.

My God, they don't have a right to sensor information on health and well being. Is this Hitler's Germany. The Gov and White House has way over stepped their boundaries. It's time to stop.

Notice that slander and libel are considered to be 'civil wrongs'--not 'criminal'...

"Punitive damages are ordered, not in compensation for the plaintiff’s loss, but to punish the defendant, or to dissuade him from taking similar actions in the future. Although punitive damages are about punishing the defendant, this monetary amount is also paid to the plaintiff."

First of all, there should be no Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH)! There should be no arbitrary counseling of what is written or said as long as it is not slanderous or libel---the following from Legal Dictionary site: "Slander vs. Libel: Slander and libel are types of defamation of character which differ only in the way the false and malicious statements are made. Both refer to statements made to hurt a person’s reputation, or his standing in the community. Both are false declarations, made out of malice, or for personal gain. Slander refers to defamatory statements made verbally, whether directly to other people, face-to-face, or by phone, voicemail, or broadcast. Libel refers to defamatory statements made in writing, expressed in print, or through symbols or art.

The elements of defamation, untrue statements made in malice, or for personal gain, are the same for both slander and libel. In both, the individual must have suffered some harm due to the defamatory statements in order to have a valid legal claim. While a few states recognize extreme cases of defamation as a crime, prosecutions are rare, even in those jurisdictions. Slander and libel are considered to be civil wrongs, for which the law considers a monetary award to be a sufficient remedy for a wronged individual. In fact, while a successful plaintiff in a slander lawsuit may be awarded money, the court generally cannot force the defendant to retract the statement, or to publish an apology.

The laws governing defamation lawsuits vary by state, subject only to the free speech provisions of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. While the elements of defamation tend to be the same throughout the states, the procedures and remedies available often differ. By far, the most common remedy in a slander lawsuit is an award of monetary damages, though it is possible for the court to award punitive damages." ...continued in next post...

All facebook has to do is not get involved with govt policy or ignore them and just do their job of facilitating debate and discussion especially in the areas of science which by nature must change over time or often highlights naivety. They must know by now that their expertise is not editorial or research savey and by taking on this role they have become like a lousy cook where their product is becoming less because they suck at it. Just do what you were originally good at. Google should also do the same and not participate on either side even though they want you to. No one will complain except those who can can't handle facing up to criticism or the facts which should be determined by the evidence given in the discussion rather than facebook or google.
