DISinformation. The difference is misinformation can be accidental or unintended (think misunderstanding), Disinformation is 100% done on purpose to deceive.
But yes, we can’t fix anything if half the population is living in a fake reality.
Disinformation causes people to believe and spread misinformation. It’s often hard to tell who is being deliberate and who is an idiot, especially with so many idiots on the public stage and so much societal mass mental illness.
Only because of poor education and critical thinking.
Which is why the religion and conservatism are the most urgent threat to humanity.

Certainly AI will help us in that regard, right? Let me find a prompt engineer to see what answers they come up with.
As much as you would criticize a society that only had three television news outlets, you gotta admit, it was much more stable. The problem is people don’t know the difference between getting your information from journalists held to standards of proof and fairness, and a guy like Joe Rogan who spout off bullshit without any need to actually fact check anything.
Joe Rogan is whatever. At least he’s a real person. I’m more worried about nation state botnets.
But Rogan falls for and spreads the information provided by said botnets.
I will bet money that the root of almost all disinformation tracks back to Russia.
Russia, the authoritarian petro state. Saudi Arabia, The authoritarian petro state and now America and the UK Authoritarian petro states. Shell Oil, British Petroleum all of them. Oil, we are on the cusp of a nuclear revolution. Which is so efficient it would effectively end for profit energy. Nuclear power plus electric cars means no more fossil fuels. Means the end to the power and influence of the Koch family, founders of the CATO institute. The libertarian think tank that Peter Thiel wrote his essay for where he says “… I no longer believe democracy and freedom to be compatible.” War is how they continue to justify their existence and continue to pollute the world. Creating more opportunities for the insurance companies and banks that invest in fossil fuels to profiteer from the misery and suffering they cause. Copenhagen atomics is close to creating a working prototype thorium salt reactor, which can fit in a 40 foot shipping container and solve the energy crisis and climate change. Copenhagen, capital city of Denmark, now does threatening the Danish Territory of Greenland make more sense? War with Denmark and they can bomb the fuck out them. They want perpetual war, War in Ukraine and Gaza are not going to end, they’re just the beginning.

Blaming a mythical entity for the deceitfullness of some humans is just another lie.
Sorry…
Can’t promote/read/endorse anything from Nazistack.
🤷♂️ 🤦♀️
With the Nazi-bar argument that I presume you are making with Substack, where’s the line?
Should we stop using the Internet because Nazi views are expressed on it? Should we stop using our toilets because Nazis also flush their shit on the same sewage system?
The line is where I draw it for me.
As it should be for anyone on the Internet.
Your slippery slope argument is daft. 🤷♂️
Bye.
Except you didn’t just draw line. You drew a line, actively promoted that line, then refused to elaborate on the drawing of the line whatsoever.
Then called someone else daft.
Okay. I respect that that’s your decision. Have a nice day.
