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.

We can still tell you're multiple people running the account, buddy, your multiple speech patterns and 24/7 posting cycle gave it away. you also haven't been trolling c/politics, so i was kinda right there as well.
Because not all the accounts are me. There is a concentrated effort to get rid of me. So there are imitators. But as for me, just me. And there are not multiple speech patterns.
I seem to remember you saying that when I was on .world too.
Because I was banned there. So I have never posted there. If I were trolling or if I were a group of people, wouldn't I just come up with an alternative name and continue posting there?
Expecially if I were "multiple people." Dude, you wanna hate, go for it. But at least use logical arguments about why you think I'm an asshole.
What would be the goal of a "team" of me. Election is over. And Trump won by such a large margin that even if all the third party voters (which I advocate for) had voted for Harris, she would have still lost.
So what would be a purpose of a "team" of me. Please tell my your theories.
Just because Trump won that doesn't mean your boss is going to stop astroturfing and trolling, manufacturing consent is a full time job. Your patterns are easy enough to see for anyone who wants to dig through your comments (or your old ones at least, I'm not interested in going through your modern ones to see if you guys got better at your job), you shift from this shitlib-y holier-than-thou attitude to someone who is way worse at trying to seem civil while baiting out responses. Not to mention the near constant engagement.
