The Kremlin has long sought to sow chaos using ‘information confrontation’. That job just got a lot easier

I meant it's not limited to lemmy.ml.

And yeah, it's pretty easy to tell disinfo most of the time if you prod a little.

I got banned from some .ml community because I had the audacity to suggest that maybe Russia isn't the best place in the world for individual privacy, but I think the mod was from another instance altogether. I honestly can't remember the details, but it was pretty clear a few steps into the discussion that they were at least a Russian apologist if not full-on spreading disinfo intentionally, so I baited them to push the mod button. And they did. I could have disengaged, but I don't want to be part of a community where even mild criticism of a nation isn't allowed.
