What is the purpose of the fakenews comm?
Removed by modIt’s annoying.
Yes, I’ve blocked it now. But why was it created in the first place? What do people get out of it?

I think we should repurpose it to become a disinformation center. It’d be an archive of fake news screenshots or memes from a liberal and conservative POV to spread around the internet.
For example, making some meme about the RAND corporation being loyal to Russia because they said peace talks with the Houthis will be better than bombing them. Then spreading them around with fake neoliberal accounts.
Why should 4chan and the CIA and neoliberal teenagers be the only ones spreading disinformation? So many of us are already terminally online. At the very least we should use that time to do the same things as our enemies. The effectiveness will be limited because we don’t have millionaire beneficiaries, but we just need to be lucky once.
I’m willing to kick start this transition. Just gimme a couple hours or days to create a batch of disinfo. It’ll be a mix of current events and bigger picture stuff
This is a good idea. Instead of shitting up the place it would be used to shit up mainstream narratives.
