If you believe that all news reporting exists only to inform, and never has any other purpose, you need to work on your media literacy.

Even if this is being reported in good faith, which it most likely is, the administration is still pursuing an agenda by putting this story out there to be reported. No one is under an obligation to support that agenda by remaining neutral about the information. People absolutely have a right to say "Please don't spread this" for various reasons up to and including "It enables genocide" and on platforms like Lemmy the downvote button is basically the "Please don't spread this" button.
