Disinformation-Fighting Toolkit


In order to combat disinformation, we have to remind people again and again of the basic tricks. While the information in this links might be old-hat to you, many Internet surfers haven't seen this information before.

So copy the following 2 links and paste them each time someone posts disinformation on the Web:

All modern web browsers can copy and paste links. Just highlight the links, and then paste them wherever you want.

    Great tools, G; thank you.

    The fact that corporate media is a disinformation/propaganda arm of unlawful political and economic oligarchs is easily proven in the trillion dollar categories of war and economic fraud.

    Americans understand 20th Century history that major powers engaged in imperialism and wars of aggression with complicit media in "those other" countries, but American Exceptionalism and cognitive dissonance damages their ability to see it here and now in the US, despite the evidence being clear to see.

    I do my best to explain and document in this article: Open proposal for US revolution: expose corporate media propaganda. 4 of 4

→ If you write a long comment, please use paragraph breaks. Otherwise, no one will read it. Many people still won't read it, so shorter is usually better (but it's your choice).

→ The following types of comments will be deleted if we happen to see them:

-- Comments that criticize any class of people as a whole, especially when based on an attribute they don't have control over

-- Comments that explicitly call for violence
