Headline is misleading. But the reality is that Facebook knows who these people are and knows they shouldn’t be posting content on political groups all the way across the world.

And doesn’t care.

Unfortunately, one of the primary reasons disinformation spreads so readily is that authoritative sources are beholden to corporatized interests. e.g. the end-users have only the choice of which lies they prefer to listen to, while real truth is virtually nowhere to be found, at least in the sense that it is not among those messages being blasted out at people.

Hrm, I suppose this could even be said to be a wider sense of the concept of "the Algorithm" (moar profits=good), even in the news article creation sense rather than the more typical news aggregation/social media meaning. In the latter, existing articles are selected in such a way as to maximize advertising sales, whereas in the former... pretty much identically the same, except a few things (notably titles) can be changed to better sell the content.

The state and these governments serve the wealthy. Who manipulate the media against the people. Why would the states go against the people they serve. Whom to be clear when I say the people they serve I don't mean the people. I'm speaking about the wealthy.

There probably are information campaigns. But disinformation has a massive advantage because it doesn't need facts, you just need catchy slogans with no basis in reality. They spread much more easily.

Why? There's no crime here.
