Nothing should be done about social media. It's just like being in a crowd of people. Free speech should be the rule.
Let's be honest. Big media companies want to control every narrative. They want to tell you what to believe and how to act. Social media democratizes that-- your family and friends can tell you how things are, wherever they are at.
Can people lie, or bend the truth to suit their narrative? Absolutely. Does the same thing happen from every other source of information? To some degree, yes.

Social media should be kept free.
