Definitely agree that important problems like this require diverse opinions and meaningful dialogue, but I don't feel that pointing out the failures of human institutions is an attempt to shut down discussion.

Rather, I think the point being made was that we need to reframe the problem at hand; instead of trying to "control misinformation" maybe we need to work on ways to _amplify_ true information in ways that render misinformation powerless.

That'd be great, but suggestions like that are in short supply. Education for better truth-detection is a popular one, but takes a long time to pay off and doesn't amplify, as such.
