    weaponized disinformation is a legitimate threat that shouldn’t be downplayed

    If anything, I’d like to see this be made one of the more important issues by our politicians. It really bugs me that, after all the attacks on our society by bad actors using actual disnfo campaigns, there really isn’t anyone making it a major campaign issue (correct me if I’m wrong!). These bad actors are using our obsession with free speech as a weapon against us, fighting a war that our government doesn’t appear to give two shits about. I really believe we can figure a way to fight back without stepping on freedom’s toes. I mean, we’re supposed to be fucking America for chrissakes, we can figure this out!
