Zohran Mamdani's victory exposes the out-of-touchness of establishment media outlets that twisted like pretzels to scare voters away.

    It’s not “out-of-touchness” though.

    It’s that the establishment media (and the establishment as a whole for that matter) explicitly serve the interests of the wealthiest few.

    No war but class war.

      The out-of-touch part is that every time they try to smear him they just make people like him more.

        They also think they can maintain control of the narrative. Nope.

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]

Pointing out, debunking, and spreading awareness about state- and company-sponsored astroturfing on Lemmy and elsewhere. This includes social media manipulation, propaganda, and disinformation campaigns, among others.

Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.

What’s the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.

By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.
