Lock the thread with a pinned comment to some actual evidence proving them wrong would be the closest alternative we have.

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 23 points 3 months ago

Yeah, but here the Admins had to step in because the mods would do the exact opposite, so that's also not really an option.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, and that's... Ok.
But I'd like something that was more visible without going into the comments, so people could see it in their feed

Not to mention how much it puts on the shoulders of moderators to have to fact check every post/comment and find reliable sources to ensure false information isn't spread. It would likely be unsustainable without a lot of funding if the platform expands furrher over time.
