That makes sense and you make some really good points.

I have one idea (usually these ideas are fragile and blow up in my own mind, but bear with me).

What if anyone that posts something on social media requires x ratio of likes/dislikes (before spreading) from anonymous users from a truly random selection of people. What would the information landscape look like?

What if we self-censor through some small but liberal consensus - the ratio threshold is up for debate.
