Covid is real, vaccines work, and Ivermectin is a scam pushed by grifters[1]. There is no 'both sides'.

Just don't go to any of those subs if it upsets you. Why do you feel it nessesary to deny others the ability to see both sides of an arguement before making an informed decision like an adult?
A website permits bullshit to be "debated." An individual reads the bullshit, goes out and tries it, and dies, dumbly.
In an alternate universe...
That same website is proactive about harmful bullshit being discussed, and removes it before it can sit and grow anywhere. Other platforms follow suit, so as not to be the odd one out, and do the same. That individual never reads the bullshit, never attempts it, and lives.
Do you understand why some people would want platforms to keep bullshit off of them? Even if they themselves know better than to believe or act on it?
