It's a slippery slope when we start regulating certain books as "spreading false news". I don't like to hear that at all.
True but are books about "UFO's, monsters, coverups, conspiracies etc" the same as books saying millions of people didn't die, or saying one is race is better than the other, or?

I agree its a fine line, and I guess what I am saying is that I can see both sides. I work (well not right now, but my field) in a field were I can see, or hear about, a lot of the harm that is done from such statements. So that makes it hard there for me. But as well, I can see the angle of "police state", "what do you decide can be said/cannot", etc.
