> It's not that they always post such a blatant lies or falsehoods but the brand as a whole is tainted. It's operated as more of disinformation campaign/operation To be clear, that is exactly how professional propaganda operates. Their goal is to deceive people; blatant lies obviously won't accomplish that, just like blatant phishing attacks will fail. If you can tell it's propaganda (without knowing otherwise about the source), it's not very well done. AFAICT, humans greatly overestimate their ability to know propaganda when they see it. We all think that we can't be fooled so easily, and that's exactly what makes us vulnerable. We're naturally persuaded by things that don't correlate with truth - you can see that in the accomplishments of endless false political leaders, and their propagandists, throughout history.
