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.

An example of stunningly blatant disinformation and obsufucation put out by a dead husk of a political party.

You mean stunningly blatant disinformation and obfuscation commissioned by the dead husk of a political party, but then forced to be released against the will of the replacement party leadership that correctly disavows it.

In fact, by refusing to acknowledge the vast difference between the old DNC leadership and the new, the article itself is peddling disinformation.

I see no evidence the new leadership is materially different, especially to the degree that is necessary. The DNC has been drowned by a class of people who cannot risk winning in a way that de-legitimizes their entire political ideology and there is no turning back from the kind of fatal momentum that creates.

Sure, just completely fucking ignore the fact that the chair agrees the report is bullshit, which is exactly why he tried to ditch it in the first place!

You hate the old DNC, and do so for good reason, but you're so blinded by it that you don't even fucking realize that you're now hating the new DNC led by entirely different people who agree with you!
