Why the fuck is The Guardian giving Trump credit for the latest supposed cease-fire, and writing about him as if he's skilled at diplomacy?

    Are you saying Biden wanted to end the war, but couldn’t? Because I remember him circumventing congress to send military aid to Isreal, more than once. No one was forcing his hand, they were actually doing the opposite.

      What? Congress approved a bunch of aid, but needed to be notified when a chunk above a certain dollar amount got sent, and he skirted the rules to send big chunks without triggering the notifications. That’s definitely not good, but it’s not going around them to send more. Actually, when he briefly paused the already-approved aid, congress started squawking about how upset they were that he would do that.

      When did he go around congress to send aid? I might have missed it but I’m not aware of that happening.

        Yes congress approved a lot of it. But some of it was sent without approval.

          Jesus Christ. Okay, I stand corrected.

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.
