Fediverse vs Disinformation
Pointing out, debunking, and spreading awareness about state- and company-sponsored astroturfing on Lemmy and elsewhere. This includes social media manipulation, propaganda, and disinformation campaigns, among others.
Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.
What's the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.
By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.

Are you okay? You don't seem very stable
Thanks, sweetie. You good with nibbling on the crumbs they deem safe for you to have? Have fun with that.
I'm sure the state of the world would immediately be solved if gas ranges were banned worldwide, yep. This is such an important topic among the slew of corpo greed issues threatening to end civilization as we know it.
FFS, the way things are going, no one'll live long enough to contract the cancers they cause.
You can huff paint thinner all day if you want but not every study and news article needs to solve every problem in this world. There are people suffering from asthma in this world and if staying away from gas stoves improves their quality of life this info should be spread. Just because you are a cynical schozoposter doesn't mean that you are always right
Then it should've said as much, instead of the doom& gloom it's relying on. 🤷🏼♂️
Where do you see doom and gloom?
