WrongThink: Free Speech Social Media Platform

WrongThink is a controversial social media platform that bills itself as a 'free speech' alternative to mainstream sites like Facebook and Twitter. It has been accused of allowing hate speech and misinformation.

What is WrongThink?

WrongThink is a social media platform launched in 2019 that promotes itself as a free speech alternative to larger sites like Facebook and Twitter. Its founders stated goal is to allow all legal speech without censorship.

However, the site has proven controversial as critics have accused it of being a safe haven for extremism, hate speech, conspiracy theories and misinformation. While WrongThink policies do ban outright illegal content, the lighter touch moderation approach has allowed questionable and inflammatory content to proliferate.

Supporters of WrongThink argue that mainstream platforms go too far in restricting political speech and that open debate, even of extreme ideas, is healthy. But many experts counter that WrongThink's permissive policies enable real world harm by allowing hate and disinformation to spread unchecked.

Attempts to fact-check or remove clear falsehoods and calls for violence have led to accusations of political bias and free speech violations by WrongThink's founder. The tensions around platform moderation versus free expression continue to play out across WrongThink's rocky existence so far.
