No one here is advocating strong censorship though, and there is a massive chasm between banning specific topics during a pandemic and having generally strong censorship.

This slippery slope is fallacious.

You're declaring the opposite, but for a proponent of the slippery slope argument this would be a perfect example of going down the slippery slope. First came banning hate speech, now comes COVID, what's next?

I wasn't making a slippery slope argument, I'm answering to whether there is more or less misinformation under a freer or a less free society. The easiest and best place to start is always going to be at the more extreme ends of something.
