Engage, share responsibly, and let’s build resilience against information warfare. #MediaLiteracy #DisinfoWatch #Armenia

Be prepared: such shady videos will likely increase as elections approach. Train your critical thinking before trusting viral content. Tools help — but judgment helps more. 🛡️🧠

When tools fail, media literacy matters more than ever. Ask:
• Who is sharing this and why?
• Is this a credible source?
• Can independent sources confirm it?

🎥 Visual inconsistencies suggest manipulation. Still, this shows how disinformation can evade detection tools — especially as we approach the 2026 Armenian elections.

🔍 @fip.am fact-checked the video:
Only “Цицак/Ծիծակ” and “Artsakh 44” Telegram channels shared it.
Digital expert @ArenManukyan tested it with deepfake/AI detection tools — none flagged it as fake. But red flags are still visible.

If such a shocking incident really occurred, Armenian outlets would’ve picked it up immediately — especially since the woman says she won’t stay silent. But the video only appears on Haqqin.az and two obscure Telegram channels.

36 cases of pressure against media and their staff
2 cases of physical violence by police
16 lawsuits for insult and defamation (up by 3)
20 cases of inappropriate treatment, insults, threats, intolerance, and discrimination against journalists

And now - this! A fine blue sky… but all I want by now is to at least have enough time and energy to interact with thousands of followers in the platforms of the past - Facebook, Insta, X… and yeah, there’s a hyperactive Threads too somewhere out there…

I had plenty of energy when MySpace, Facebook, Wordpress, Livejournal, YouTube and Twitter came round. Tumblr looked too silly for me to try, Snapchat - didn’t get the interface, Instagram - I dig it, Pinterest - I don’t dig it. Mastodon - I staked my flag there but no energy to move beyond…
