  • Another attempt by authoritarians to create more chilling effects on scientific research.

    Disinformation (about vaccines, elections, minority groups, reality itself) is absolutely killing people. We gotta figure this stuff out.

  • Must be a pay wall site.

    Can't read the article, but I know the Republicans don't have any policies that help people. They just have cultural wars on who to hate. So I am sure misinformation is very important for them to win.
