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.

Yes, yes I am choosing to ignore it, because it's irrelevant to the point I'm making, because the point I'm making is that they're not there to break up the echo chamber, they're the second wall of it, and unless you make a special case for the NYT, they are neither exempt not unique about it.
Well I'm glad you're back on track talking about the subject at hand. Took you a while but you got there. Maybe don't take so many detours next time.
Regarding the subject at hand, I guess you're entitled to your own opinion then too, aren't you?
...I'm sorry, I think you meant to post this in reply to a different post.
Nope.
Are you sure you're not just confused again?
I'm just happy you agreed to stick to the topic.
