Absolutely. People who spread misinformation aren't evil. They subscribe to a certain set of ideals, and feel comfortable within their social circles when those ideals get reinforced. The main desire is to be validated as a person, the issue is that internet has allowed those social circles to leak and attract other people looking for validation. All you need to do is to provide a natural organization of those social circles with a technical solution, where people can get the validation while having their ideas reinforced, except those ideas would be factually correct. And on a hierarchy of needs, things like money and food and shelter and health come way before ideology, so you just need financial incentives in that form to get people to organize. I.e something that looks like "If you post a true wikipedia article that is peer reviewed to be true, you get tax breaks or payouts, if you post things that are factually false, you get a fee". Multiple ways to solve this technically. All the solutions however would require a government funded/ran public key registry associated with your unique username, with a corresponding private key that is password+biometric determined, and you would need to have every piece of social media signed with a private key.
