... for example, conspiracies about chicken feed.
If someone makes a claim that chicken feed is bad, and a person should instead feed their birds only beans, with no evidence to support that claim- this would be harmful, as it spreads misinformation and would lead to unhealthy poultry.

Excellent example. The alternative to trying to stop anyone from saying chicken feed is bad is to explore the idea on forums such as this. Discussions about such aspects as the even theoretical possibility of beans instead being better, the likelihood of the original person having credibility, along with a few methods of gathering evidence resulted in a healthy counter.

It may have even encouraged a few more people to think through info they see on the internet instead of encouraging them to think anything they see must be right because otherwise it would have been removed.

Just an example. But we should move away from this topic..

Well, I would have stopped before this (quoted) post if your next post hadn't continued this topic.

I'm just going to let you know that really sounds as though you're defending hate speech, even after I defined it as abusive or threatening speech, or prejudice towards ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, etc

that should be forbidden for a reason, on social media, in instructions and anywhere else.
Again, moving on now because what I said was towards an individual who was upset with April Fool's and said their rights were violated. Lol

Was the person upset about April Fool's using hate speech?

I'm not defending people being jerks. People shouldn't be jerks. Nonetheless, broad and ambiguous speech laws can be problematic.

Yeah the thing is other people also replied and I wanted to explain to them as well
As to your point, fair enough. But sometimes in the world, misinformation costs lives. And sometimes it does need to be controlled, *as well* as answered.
That's all I have left to add. But have a good day! This has been interesting

No, I was just elaborating on one point they made

Have a good evening, BelovedBirds.
