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.

As I'm sure a bunch of people will point out the contradiction, you should also keep in mind what something like this is actually about. They don't give a shit about the fetus. They just want women to have their kids whether they want to or not. If you are against abortion because you think it's wrong I respect your point of view. Personally I'm pro choice, but we all have our own morals that we subscribe to. But if you are against abortion because you want to control women's bodies you can go fuck yourself. Maybe if we regulated dicks more we wouldn't have so many sexual predators in government.
Just be aware that just because the person you voted for wants the same thing as you, that doesn't mean it's for the right reasons.
