If its really misinformation like you say, it should be no problem to debunk it with actual arguments.

you just opened a conspiratorial box of Pandora on lemmy.ml

What I'm talking about is just to come up with a position and indicate it in rules.

And you want to ban people just because they have a different opinion. To me that sounds much more dangerous.
