@prologic@twtxt.net I agree with you, we should be discussing ideas openly and transparently. Because it’s though discussion that we can get the reality. As @bender@twtxt.net says “people spreading things they believe to be right”, maybe we are ourselves spreading false claims, without knowing, we can only know by exchanging ideas, and being open. The biggest question is what is “misinformation”, I believe the answer change according your beliefs. Many times we have seen what was categorize as “official” misinformation, being actually real.

Exactly. I remember when it was an insane, racist conspiracy theory that COVID-19 leaked from the Wuhan lab, now it’s right there on Wikipedia.

Conversely, do you remember that study from Imperial College that projected 2.2 million deaths from COVID in the US alone? Total misinformation.

@bender@twtxt.net, Thanks, I should maybe read that magazine so, I like to see a lot of different points of view.

@mckinley@twtxt.net, I never understood that one, here in Canada they were saying in the beginning that the virus came from chinese eating bats or something like this. Why have not told the truth since the beginning ??

@bender@twtxt.net I’ve committed the cardinal sin of the Internet: Linking to a website with a conservative bias. At least they’re open about it.

Genuine question : How comes stupid conspiracist knew it before governments and journalists ?

@bender@twtxt.net No, it was known, but if you talked about it you were a Racist Spreader of Misinformation and needed to have a disclaimer below the post saying so.
