I see a lot of posts lately, mainly in ‘world news’ communities, that when I investigate their source, I cannot come to any other conclostion that purposefully spreading of fake news and propaganda on lemmy.
I love this platform and want to see it thrive, but the fact that these kind of posts can so easily populate my feed is disturbing.
Honestly it makes me want to abandon social media altogether. I don’t really trust random people to moderate discussion without favoring their own agenda. It’s even worse when it’s not random people who have sought out the position to push propaganda, but I think Lemmy is mostly too small for that still.
