You Be the Judge

Tacitus, Germania 3.4 (tr. Maurice Hutton):
I have no intention of furnishing evidence to establish or refute these assertions: everyone according to his temperament may minimise or magnify their credibility.

quae neque confirmare argumentis neque refellere in animo est: ex ingenio suo quisque demat vel addat fidem.
This should be the official policy of Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other companies who now censor Internet content under the guise of "fact checking" and "policing hate speech." Either that, or they should follow Chairman Mao's advice:
Let a hundred flowers bloom, and a hundred schools of thought contend.
