From a formal logic perspective, your statement is true. But in real life, the more important distinction is not between "true" and "false", but between "purposefully deceptive and ungenuine disinformation" versus "outspoken dissenting viewpoint". And that is one that people are really bad at telling the difference between, especially if the viewpoint in particular is one that they hold very strongly.
