Higher Quality Posts Wanted
Garbage IN, Garbage OUT!
- I have seen several posts which end up being false stories or disinformation, many of which end up being shared with others (such as family members) only to have to walk back their posts once they realize the posts were based on fake stories. This makes it harder to wake normies up.
- To help reduce the proliferation of disinformation, if you are creating a post please verify that what you are posting is accurate in its entirety.
- For example, if you want to post an image of a Twitter message instead of the Twitter link, verify that the post actually exists. It may be worth adding the link into a comment or an archived link in case people would like to also verify.
- Here is an actual example: https://greatawakening.win/p/15JUCeprCJ/got-your-coffee-walk-up-to-the-l/ While the image is real, the example thumbnails are not real. Either mark it a shitpost or perhaps we could post this with a new flair of "Disinformation Alert" or something.
- Let's work to make this community better, by being more accurate with what is and what is not for entertainment, and what is actually accurate enough to share with normies.
Lol hello catsfive, I meant no disrespect to you, it was just a great example, which shows anyone could make the mistake and we shouldn't accuse each other of anything, but instead lift each other up and make this place even better.
I was actually about to send your posted image to a friend but decided it would be best to double-check the accuracy. I do agree, that the thumbnails are likely accurate, but I likely would have been called out by my friends once they found the real post.
Do you think it would be possible to get a new flair in? Like "Known Disinformation" or "Fake" could even be one
I don't mind at all. I post 20+ times a day so one or two is bound to slip thru the cracks. If me taking the 'L' helps the board, let's do this. Thanks for your hard work, frog!
I too post and some do get through(I make 30+ every day and night)...however not as many(slip through) anymore...We are all human and ALL of us make mistakes...Some people take the 'criticism' too far and make it personal which I don't agree with...Just be civil to each other...As for duplicate posts, just scroll past them! There's no need to stop and 'insult'....ππ»
Edit: Go Ahead and downvote...Water off a duck's back, just so you know...π
I will say this, if you're spending so much time generating content that you're posting 30+ posts here every night, you should be acutely aware of misinformation/disinformation. That is a large part of what the GAW.win was created for: to identify the lies being put forward by the other side. You have the time to post 30+ times, so maybe reduce the number a bit and spend appropriate amounts of time to do basic due diligence on stuff from our own side.
If I post anything factual here, it'll be cited and I'll have at least made some effort to vet the content I'm linking, verify it's legit, and identify biases. Since most of what I post is medical/pharmaceutical in nature, that's the standard we have to have. If it's not cited, I'll typically make it clear that what I said is opinion, and even that should be supported by logic. As you said, no one's perfect, but we can take affirmative steps to increase quality, even if that means sacrificing quantity.
Upvote Perky for Village Press Director , polls close soon!!!!
Keep up the good work pal.
That's lazy bro, you just basically admitted to posting whatever.
However, I enjoy the irony of all you bemoaing the current state of media, but you can't do any better.
If you say so...broπ
I don't know about censoring, as many writers of OP's including those here I find very very good. Let us discern the information coming at us. I know if I post something that's false I have people here ready to jump on me and correct me. Iron sharpens iron as we say with bible studies. It makes us better and more informed. Just my 2 cents.
