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 just had a look at his profile again, and he keep posting shit, but so far seems to be mostly only posting new actual posts on his own communities on lemmy.sdf.org
Those communities are:
conservative
saynotogroomers
libsoftiktok
saynotonazis
I can't be arsed to link properly, and don't want to drive traffic to them, but these are the current communities on lemmy.sdf.org, where he is most active.
A quick look at their comment and post history shows that they hate:
Trans people
Anime
Star Trek
Star Wars
...do they know they're on Lemmy...?
Well since they seem at least ambivilant on linux, perhaps not?
(Kidding, kidding.)
Liking Linux but hating trans people is diabolical work. At least 25% of the userbase wear pink, blue and white thigh highs.
Seems like it might be the same asshole who spammed Rammy.site in the past and flooded it with hateful garbage.
