We swim in a sea of propaganda... and I hate propaganda, be it for the good, the bad or the ugly.

I thought this was worth passing on. If it even slows the flood of disinformation and propaganda being spread here it will have done some good.

True. Awareness is important. All those fast clicks are not of the good.

Most of the article is really just promoting good critical thinking skills. In general social media would be better if everyone did that for all subjects.

One good thing that has happened on D* as a result of this war is that the sleeper Russian intelligence agency propaganda accounts have come out of hiding and are now being quickly blocked and removed.

@Adam Hunt - I didn't have anything against the article. It is always good advice to check the context.
