Disinformation and misinformation are spread by all sides and campaigns at every level.
Take, for example, when we were told that crime is down in San Francisco. Really? Do they think we don’t actually live here and see what’s happening.
- muglug 2y ago"Everyone does it" is a copout when one group of people is doing it 10x more than the other.
- labster 2y agoClassic whataboutism. Whether or not someone else lies doesn’t mean that this particular lie isn’t very concerning.
- whoknowsidont 2y ago>Disinformation and misinformation are spread by all sides and campaigns at every level. No it's not. Systemic and characteristic are words that you can only apply to one side here.
- selivanovp 2y agoYou think that just because you never saw the other side of the coin. Russian "troll farms" were created as a response to the same activity commited by USA and UK in Russian speaking side of internet for years. It took more than a decade for Russian government to realize what's happening and who does these things and with what instruments.
- Paradigma11 2y agoSo show us. We have metric tons of evidence of Russian troll farms working to destabilize the west, from leaked documents, video footage, phone calls......... Surely there must be similar evidence for western activities.
- freen 2y agoAhh yes, subjective anecdotes are obviously the correct epistemological foundation for public policy.
