    corporate #socialMedia is about making money

    this has two terrible effects:

    1. #moderation is a cost center for them. if you want to make money, you want to cut costs. therefore, it's cheaper for them to say "freeze peach!", decimate the #mod dept, and let #bigotry and #disinfo run wild

    2. we say "don't feed the #trolls" but the unfortunate human baseline behavior is that controversy drives clicks, eyeballs, engagement. therefore, bigots and disinfo is *profitable*

  3. Kid Cudi tosses controversial co-headliner from his #RebelRagers comeback tour after #MAGAT Sri Lankan Tamil heritage rapper who dated Diplo and had a child with a Canadian Seagram$ scion, has become problematic for fans. Concert goers became particularly upset about onstage rants, pronouncements and polarizing politics decrying "illegals".

    in recent years, after her 2010 breaktru hit #PaperPlanes , M.I.A. flipped off #NFL #SuperBowl XLVI halftime viewers onstage, and eventually evolved into an #AntiVax crusader spreading #disinfo about Covid-19 and sold a line of anti-5G clothing via #AlexJones #InfoWars . Her career has commercially stalled, particularly since leaving a 2012 management deal with Jay-Z's Roc Nation and a 2017 conversion to Christianity, while displaying Kanye-esque stances and evolving from anti-Trump to becoming a non US citizen who virulently supports #DJT.

  13. We have a gigantic issue on the #fediverse of promoting government #propaganda and drowning out affected people's voices. We need to address this ASAP! We are being used here for the exact same type of propaganda that #corpo social media is used for.

    We need to come to grips with the fact that predominantly white, well off western men are not the ones who should be heard most often here.

    At the moment, people are getting slaughtered and people are reporting posts about it as #disinfo!

  15. 🇬🇧🧑‍💻⛽️🔥 Close to the anniversary of the Southport misinformation spread and riots episode, I wrote about attempts made over the past year, by people in the same ecosystem, to gaslight and conspiracise a "vindication vibe" out of their utter humiliation, and the need for an "information battle station".

  17. A four-year-old Reddit account, with no post or comment history, suddenly started to make pro-fascist comments.

    A 7-hour old comment reads "Act right and you wont go to jail. Its common sense."

    The comment was posted in response to a video showing US Senator Alex Padilla being forcibly and illegally removed from a news conference held by Trump's Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

    This looks like a bot sleeper account going active.

  19. Obituary for the late Mark Zuckerberg who turned a Harvard campus creeper app, scraping and rating female students' photos, into a global Public Information Utility, who left this life firmly committed to the right of every member of the Public to enjoy their own truth; and to evade their rights established under the Common Carrier clause of the US Code which was enacted to protect citizens from parasitic utilities like those operated by Meta Corp.

  20. «No matter, Rufo said, he had proof in the form of some impressive shoe-leather reporting.
    So I visited Dayton for Drop Site News, and tracked down the infamous blue grill. It turns out there are a lot of holes in that shoe leather»

  22. criminal prosecution activity is really none of my business, but the #tenetmedia stuff is pretty funny.
    some of the most shameless grifters and smirking fascist propagandists in recent history whose best option here is to plead abject stupidity (more accurately than they'd like to pretend tbh).

  23. Inspired by @selenamarie's post, I'm adding missing information to @cward1e's #InfoDisorder typology: #MisInfo, #DisInfo, and #MalInfo need to be joined with what we might call "#SansInfo". Info gaps are not just unrealized, but can be part of the structure. We see it in #AI and #LLMs social.coop/@selenamarie@fiasc

  24. Blocked a #BCNDP #NewDeathParty #apologist & supporter. She'd been following me for a month. I wasn't sure what her political leanings were until her own toots revealed a right wing supporter of BC NDP - #WhiteLady spreader of #disinfo about #Indigenous & supports govt & industry #exploiting #IndianAct to 'pick their own apples' while ignoring #FirstNations #LandDefenders & using #RCMP to break unceded #Native #sovereignty 👿

    DON'T FOLLOW ME if you defend #HorganizedCrimes in #SuperSelloutBC 👌

  25. Great to see the last real leader of #Australia, #KevinRudd, talk about ending #RupertMurdoch's #misinformation empire.

    #Rudd is going after the dead heart of #Murdoch's #NewsCorp and that is #realEstateDotComDotAu. Many people don't know that it's owned by the #disinfo outfit.

    #KRudd has been attacked by the #fakeNews, #USOwned empire since rallying interest with a #petition.
