If it’s the former he should be banned, but I personally think it’s the latter, where I don’t think what should be done is as clear cut.

I have three friends/coworkers down the same path and it's likely not malicious. I mean my one friend repeadtedly describes how he's trying to "save me" from what the main stream media is infecting me with.
The yoho's of the world aren't generally malicious, but at the same time they are spreading misinformation which needs to be stopped as it spreads like wildfire through uneducated circles at worst and kills productive political discussion at best.
CP has ZERO appetite to deal with it despite being on a MUCH smaller scale than what social media site are dealing with. It's so frustrating, but like I said, our mods are going to cling to "don't like it, ignore it" even though they and everyone knows that this won't work, because bingo wants it like this...likley becuase he's not a part of it. I hate that, but love this site.
