For me, this is part of what most Western coverage and discussion of Romania's elections got wrong - even if an outside power is engaging in disinformation, it still needs a receptive audience for it to translate into electoral results.
My personal opinion is this is at least partly fuelled by a fundamental error in the approach in the counter-disinformation on focusing on foreign actors rather than treating information disorder as a societal issue. An extensive piece on that to come.
Still wild to me that so many "savvy" folks on left and right have bought into the idea that online misinformation is overblown and doesn't really matter. From lies about migrants to transgender people to crime to election denial to climate denial, it's literally driving our country's politics.

Safety first. That’s my motto. Better safe than sorry. That’s another. If there’s the slightest concern about the wellbeing of anyone involved - which there clearly is - best to postpone. Or even cancel altogether. Share the points. Everyone’s happy. And most importantly, everyone is safe.

The media isn't reporting the collapse of the Assad regime as the huge advance in human freedom it is. I’ve written this text for the IPM giving background on Assad’s detention and torture state. Please read, and share. qunfuz.com/2024/12/07/a...

Much of the media is reporting the collapse of the Assad regime as ‘scary jihadis’ rather than as the liberation – the huge advance in human freedom – it actually is. I̵…

Syrian rebels liberated Al Zabadani and Madaya.
During the war, those towns while being Rebel-held were subject to brutal starvation wars by Hezbollah and Assad. Entire families were starved to death.

I really want to spread awareness of this ridiculous Home Office requirement that doesn’t get enough coverage in the hopes that it will finally be scrapped (since even the Home Office probably doesn’t want it) so please RT widely!

Hope it hurt, like really badly hurt.
Ok. So Iranian proxy shia death squads from Iraq started gathering at the Iraqi-Syrian border today, entering Syria to aid Assad. And someone (either the Americans or Israel) just airstriked them.

Western media, please stop repeating russia's self-serving narratives. We've seen identical scenes for 2yrs straight before Ukraine was even allowed to strike back.
This example is equivalent to a "look what you made me do" from a domestic violence perpetrator.
