In today's media environment it is a known attack to build credibility using small or occasional truths (or at least, not easily disproven statements) to then support a larger, more widely and thinly spread disinformation campaign. Thus the warning. It is a category error to think that we are operating in a Platonic environment of ideas, evaluating and discussing them independently. We are in a disinformation war environment with combatants who are skilled and motivated, and informed by at least 100 years of practice, and should operate accordingly.
