This was one of the biggest misinformation/propaganda campaigns I’ve ever seen.
I won’t blame Zelenskyy for the claims, he’s at war and propaganda is a powerful tool. But the rest of the world just casually pilling on without verifying anything? (Including many well known and trusted news networks and big names). Absolutely unacceptable.
Anyone who works in internet infrastructure should have been shutting this theory down from the start, but because the misinformation is “good”, everyone’s fine with it somehow.
This event really made me lose faith in the world’s news organizations.
Hell, right below this post is another one talking about all the Russian bots who have disappeared and all the comments are “confirming” it.
