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.
FBI RAIDS CDC
That was a fake news headline put out by “Sorcha Faal”, a notorious, well-known propagandist.
Every pro-vaccine blog picked up this “fake news” story and ran with it, and framed it like
LOOK AT WHAT THESE STUPID ANTI-VAXXERS BELIEVE!
And of course, “anti-vaxxers” didn’t even know what to think, because it was the first we had even heard of the story.
So i did some digging, to get to the root source, which is how i found Sorcha Faal,
But every blog had the same basic template, like
“According to (blog B) the anti-vaxxers believe (bullshit)”
Click on link to (blog B)
Blog B says, “According to blog C…”
And blog C links to blog D,
D links to E…
Literally dozens of articles, all citing one another in a massive circle-jerk.
Obviously not organic, obviously coordinated, and obviously the intent was to smear-job the anti-vaccine side,
Presumably because the actual vaccine debate wasnt going their way.

Isnt it weird how google pretends like they would never deliberately link you to misinformation or disinformation,
And yet, you can find Sorcha Faal’s propaganda no problem?

Blogs are a horrible source for that exact reason, they all use other blogs as a source and if you can find the source material whatsoever it is usually heavily exaggerated upon. Of course there are blogs where people post well sourced material and include citations where needed, sadly these are far and few between all the low-effort ones. Before linking to a blog post it would be best if people looked into it A LOT more than most people seem to.
