When you run an ad for weapons next to articles inciting retaliation against the government, it does become the same as supporting or fostering an insurrection.

Now, sure, it can happen because you unleashed an algorithm on the world and don't know what it does, but you're still responsible for it.

People are responsible for their own actions.

Perhaps you want the government to tell you what you can say but I would prefer to go in the opposite direction and completely divorce speech from action, and stop trampling on our rights over the actions of a few. This endless shifting of blame solves nothing.
