There's so much Kremlin and CCP disinformation on Lemmy I've stopped recommending it to anyone. Really a shame.

The only way to deal with it is to smother it with people who are aware of the disinformation, though.

But the people understanding desinformation are spending significant amounts of free time on it, while the propagandists are getting paid and the morons just soak up the headlines and go on... so both ignore any actual argument or link to facts someone spend time one anyway.

So, no. There is easy way to deal with this that doesn't involve heavy moderation...

I’ve been suggesting universal defederation from the tanky instances for a few months. They’re all terrible in unique but related ways.

I think that's absolutely the right direction.

They're not genuine, they don't argue in good faith, they brigade... the Fediverse won't ever become truly meaningful in its current state.

Exactly! Speak up! I’ve been in a couple of bouts with a hexbear mob already!

News can be disinformation? Does that mean the US does it too?
