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.

Why do you think he "joked" about people not having to vote again if he won? He doesn't intend to have another election. Rather, he'll just serve another term until he can pass the presidency on to someone else he favours.
He wants a monarchy. If he tries to install anyone, it'll be his rotten kids.
What? Dictator? No way. I'm just holding off on elections because of that explosion in that democratic city(don't worry about who did that) and until we cracked down on all the antifa personal (that happen to be anyone opposing him).
I still have people (in the South) tell me they're so sorry when they learn I live in Seattle.
They are legitimately convinced that the entire city burned down.
