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.
Stop depending on Lemmy for news.
Why? I feel it’s better than reading media owned by governments or large corporations and it often presents an alternate view.
The why was answered in the OP
Not really. At least here you get various opinions. Crazy or not. Other sources seem to be endless echo chambers.
Ironically not sourcing their claims!
The whole Internet is lying to you!
It’s like you have to be constantly vigilant and fact check everything!
