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.

Says who? Sure some religious people but also many religious leaders specifically say the opposite.
Transgender people have always been part of the human experience and if you take even a tiny peak at how diverse gender, sexuality and everything involved gets in the natural world you can clearly see that if God exists they are probably a fan of creativity and diversity when it comes to these things...
So no, you cannot assert that deists necessarily see trans people as indicator that god made a mistake.
They do. And I disagree with them. Those points are clear. Theirs and mine. I'm not exactly sure what yours is, though. Going off your second paragraph, I'm guessing you agree with me, but you also want to please the deists... maybe? Eh, either way, I'm not willing to budge on my position. This isn't a ChangeMyMind comm.
No, they say that while mainstream US Christianity lost the plot, there are denominations and steams of that religion that still love their neighbors unconditionally.
I'm an atheist and want religion abolished, but I don't lack reading comprehension.
But you lack empathy. Which is worse? What you have demonstrated to be true, or what you assume about others, framed within that lack of empathy?
Why the fuck would you make that up about me?
