I see a lot of posts lately, mainly in ‘world news’ communities, that when I investigate their source, I cannot come to any other conclostion that purposefully spreading of fake news and propaganda on lemmy.

I love this platform and want to see it thrive, but the fact that these kind of posts can so easily populate my feed is disturbing.

    I was responding to their comment about political alignment:

    If you think those are leftwing news sources then you probably need to educate yourself a bit more on political ideology.

    The source has nothing to do with credibility.
