Fediverse vs Disinformation

Pointing out, debunking, and spreading awareness about state- and company-sponsored astroturfing on Lemmy and elsewhere. This includes social media manipulation, propaganda, and disinformation campaigns, among others.
Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.
What's the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.
By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.

I’m convinced all the UFO stuff is bullshit. They use aliens and ufos to manipulate people. Look at the gangstalking operation. They litter ufo and alien talk to make their victims, who are just people that don’t fit americas ideological lifepaths, look crazy. Fake books about it released by pen names are really just part of the operation. It’s the feds.
They also always bring up ufo stuff when bigger things are happening as a distraction.
I swear America is a psychological warfare battlefield. Nothings ever going make this place authentic because people are fine with their consumerism escapism lifestyle… which is a narrow path that’s psychologically marketed to them as a means of control. The structure that people see as freedom is actually a structure created and controlled by few, who are also probably in the highest ranks of intelligence agencies, military, and businessmen… our democracy is for show. Just look at… our current reality in America is more crazy than what I said sounds …and what I said is slowly being realized as possible… because it probably is.
It’s like it’s unraveling but people are denying it because it brings insecurity.
Is America for us or for them?
From Gizmodo: Pentagon Has Been Pushing Americans to Believe in UFOs for Decades, New Report Finds.
lol what? Anything I’ve seen about that is just paranoid people struggling with mental health issues.
Can you point me to a legit news source that explains this supposed real gangstalking?
Gangstalking operation? I've heard of individuals who perceive themselves as being stalked by large organizations but I'm not sure what you mean by operation.
Have you ever seen a 1986 movie called Riders of the Storm (also called The American Way, apparently)?
