Digital Service Act – Europe has not been sleeping. Just took a bit of time to get shit done
Oblivious? I don’t think so. However, there are pro-Russian politicians here in the West deep in the pocket of Putin…
That he gave an interview to Tucker Carlson is more than enough proof that Carlson isn’t allied to us. A so-called American journalist goes on to interview their arch-nemesis (makes no sense to do that) without any critique or proper questions.
Edit: Nobody is saying that Carlson should align with Europe. Since he is American his interests should at the very least align with the USA. Of course in his role as journalist he should be objective, however he also should ask sharp questions or have critique ESPECIALLY against a politician or head of state. Him not doing that proofs that he isn’t even a journalist and that he doesn’t align with American interest. (and lets face it, European and American interests don’t always align)
On a side note: When will Tucker Carlson be prosecuted for treason? Like WTF…
Both sides are running this war, actually, and are well aware of that. The propaganda goes both ways.
That is, Europe simply wants to have only its own truth. It’s especially funny to read when Europe is not against Israeli disinformation
We can’t aggressively silence what could be considered opinion. Doing so would turn us into the authoritarian hellscape of the east.
This is unfortunate easily exploited, and those who exploit this are very effective.
Something needs to be done and it’s urgent, I however have no solutions other than cutting attackers off completely.
Well, if we really get pulled into war, that won’t last much longer. Any pro-Russia propaganda then will be considered high-treason. I expect a lot of arrests will follow if we progress to that point.
This article is so fucking bad it’s hilarious; obvious propaganda piece
If you like to see obvious Russian info war look at r/ukrainerussiareport
Blatent propaganda, fake accounts pretending to be pro Ukraine, bot voting, bans and removal of pro Ukraine post and people etc.
Deleted my X recently it has turned into a shit show to be honest. I was on X for real estate, tech and football, but continued to get Elon musk, conspiracy theories, pro Russian propaganda and crazy violent videos on my timeline.
Eh no. Its blatantly obvious
That article thumbnail is an awesome graphic.
Even more so NATO’s disinfection war
That’s a conspiracy theory. Where is the scientific, peer-reviewes *proof*
Only accept scientific evidence, not emotions
Fuck Russia! Putin to hell!
tdlr: A permeable society is more vulnerable when defending against a criminal regime.
The west is a geopolitical mess compose of 25 head of states, 250K+ politicians, 21 millions public servants, over 2500+ political parties 70% are or right wing or left wing 30% are centrist.
Russia:
One head of state, 7600 politicians, one political party, 1 million public servant.
Also oblivious to who blew up Nord Stream
I swear to God if I see one more American tankie on twitter mindlessly repeating pro-Russia talking points I’m gonna lose it
Not oblivious. You open Portuguese Twitter and Brazilians are praising Putin to high heaven and calling NATO and West the “true evils”.
BRICS money helps too, I guess.
What? Are you saying all these reddit accounts from 2022-2024 that are telling that it’s nato’s fault, and that the west has fallen and that putin did nothing wrong, are lying to me???
How can this be?
At least a 1/3rd of America thinks Russia is bigly perfect. Have you seen the ruski grocery stores?
The West is apparently also oblivious to its *own* information war.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but their opinion isn’t entitled to broadcasting – social media, where algorithms artificially inflate inflammatory speech is not a public space where information flows freely but an artificial one controlled by corporations out to make profit. We need to recognise this. Social media needs much stronger regulation:
– ban all bots (i.e. accounts pretending to be human)
– require identification of all users
– regulate political advertising on social media (must be clearly labelled with who paid for it) and limit the amount of money / instances parties are allowed
– identify and remove coordinated attacks (i.e. multiple accounts pushing the same narratives to present an “organic” movement”
– enforce fact checking and user notification of false or misleading information

I’m more concerned about the Wests information war against its own citizens
