What the writers probably really want in order to deal with the "misinformation" issue.

Better research points to the established radicalization of the orthodox news media

Wow! 1640 cherry picked accounts over a 3+ year period.

I wonder how much of this mis/dis-information and conspiracy theory material eventually turned out to be true. Notice the remaining concern is climate change, something that cannot be dis-proven again for another 7 years. SMH

Limited government and individual freedom are “misinformation”.

The study found that online discussions often attempted to fuel offline hostility and violence, promoting anti-lockdown and anti-immigration mobilization..

And does this necessarily involve dis or misinformation, or just subjects escaping the narrative?

13 million posts from 1,640 accounts across 12 online platforms between January 2020 and April 2023

Tht comes out to about 200 posts a day. That’s either a bunch of bots or someone with no job.

Hateful ideologies spread with ease, with support for white nationalism, antisemitism and Islamophobia observed on platforms like Telegram and Instagram, while Holocaust denial and the promotion of Nazi material

That sounds like DU and a bigly number of leftists.

To marxists, people who aren’t marxist probably LOOK like they’re far right, even when they’re passively thinking conservatively.

Very informative.

BTW, this lot is registered as a 501c3 in the US.

Handy, that.

The left crying about extremism would be a joke is it wasn’t potentially dangerous.

>> the influence of the far right is growing

I like to think of it as “sanity and common sense and love of GOD and country are returning worldwide after a period of marxist mental illness”. Label me however you like. “Far right”? Okay.

Just seeing the term “Far-Right” lets me know this is disinformation on disinformation.

Ireland has been captured by the Far Left. The usual leftist news rags in Ireland and elsewhere in Europe paint any effort to oppose the mass third world invasion of Ireland as “anti-immigration mobilization” and deny that Leo Varadkar and his gang of lefties are purposefully destroying the country by implementing the WEF’s Great Replacement. Some of the Irish are fighting back and are therefore demonized.

Even the left’s article on disinformation is disinformation. How do they get away with it?

New research on the spread of online misinformation and disinformation in Ireland has revealed that the influence of the far right is growing.

The study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) also shows that tech companies are failing to enforce community guidelines to curb the spread of false, misleading and harmful content on social media platforms.

I wouldn’t know without seeing each individual case, but I have a really bad feeling this is a group of people on the political Left looking to just censor people whose ideas they don’t like.

Keith Woods on YouTube is a great source for what is really going on in Ireland. The government is forcibly foisting immigrants in large numbers onto small Irish towns. The citizens who oppose this are the ones attacked by the government.
