Well disinformation is usually by doing it deliberately, as opposed to just being ignorant.
Having said that, most is not all and the comment in question was purely from being ignorant as opposed to purposefully trying to change people's perceptions whilst knowing the facts.
- qarl 3y agoNot at all. Most people who spread disinformation are completely unaware that it is disinformation. They actually believe it. Think of all the senior citizens on Facebook spreading pro Trump memes.
- NoPicklez 3y agoExactly, it's not disinformation when the person is spreading the information through ignorance. It's misinformation then they intentionally spread it, whilst knowing better.
- qarl 3y agoI disagree. For example, that's not the criteria social media sites use when they block disinformation. In these cases, nearly all of the people propagating the message are ignorant.
