Hiya, !astroturfing@lemmy.world is a community meant to point out/discuss/investigate/inform about various misinformation campaigns, bot networks etc on social medias, which are often state backed or company backed.

lemmy.world engages in its own form of censorship when it wholesale bans other instances and its members actively downvote posts pejorative of biden and gaza; this seems like it’s getting off on bad footing.
It’s a good idea but I who will decide what is misinformation or not? And about bots… I think the web is doomed. Ai will make sure everything is just bot content in the end.
Credible sources. Reports from high quality news sources trusted government sources etc.
