Greetings and salutations (again?) dear Reader, and welcome (back?) to this obscure, American blog where Free Speech is paramount, period, no matter what my own opinion is of what you have to say, to mimic Voltaire, I *will* die for your right to say it!
About "misinformation" - you mean, LIES.
People have been telling them for time ad infinitum and that fact is highly, highly unlikely to change anytime soon. It is incumbent upon you and I, dear Reader, to dig deeper than mere headlines and compare ALL of the information available about any given topic or story and THEN make an informed decision after exploring the stories being put out by EVERY SINGLE SIDE of the aisle, including the middle.
Look for RECEIPTS: are there videos? photos? documents? numerous, credible witnesses?

And THAT, dear Reader, is why so very many people in this modern, crumbling society of today's volatile world refuse to believe what the preponderance of evidence (including their own two eyes!) tells them. No, instead, they double-down, more married to preserving outdated, incorrect opinions in the face of Truth substantiated by facts to the contrary.
Out of sheer curiosity: how many people has President Trump had arrested because he simply does not like what he/she said? Go ahead, list their names here in the comments... provided you can find even so much as one. You see, dear Reader, above and beyond the profoundly inaccurate claims of the extreme left, a true Fascist would not only arrest every single person who said things that fascist disliked, but the arrested people would then be imprisoned and/or 'unalived' simply for talking.
If you legitmately believe that to be happening in these United States, I'm all ears, so go ahead and list them, as I said earlier, in the comments. Take your time and do a deep dive; not for me, for yourself.
When you have a solid foundation in a belief system that is based on legitimate, factual Truth, then you won't fear hearing what 'the other side' thinks or has to say, because their ideas and words are not instantly perceived as a threat, even if (you believe them to be) inaccurate. No, if what you believe in is truly, really solid, you won't feel 'threatened' by different information one iota. If you're using your ability to truly employ critical thought and logic, then you'll either be able to disprove false claims by way of legitimately diligent research, or you might learn better information than what you believed before. In these politically charged times, it is important not to allow ourselves to be trapped in echo-chambers; for that reason, I value the people whose ideologies differ from mine, from friends, business associates, even relatives. Any and all ire I hold for what has become of the Democratic party in the US is all for those in elected leadership, who know better and deliberately lie and fear-monger to manipulate their constituents. That is NOT acceptable, not now, and not ever. But those of you who are simply rank-and-file voters like myself, no, you're victims of psyops and skillfully engineered propaganda, just like I was, and for so SO many years (in my case).
Though I was a Democrat for most of my life (1979 to 2016), I've actually cast more votes for Libertarian candidates than all of my votes for Democrats and Republicans combined in this life; today, I consider myself a solid centrist, even though I felt that President Trump was the clear choice this last election cycle. In fact, in the previous election cycle (2020), I voted for Jo Jorgensen (and she's a woman!)
Anyway, dear Reader, I don't say these things for anyone to do anything performative for me, no. These suggestions are a soft challenge to YOU to gather ALL the available angles and THEN, THEN after hearing it ALL, then it is better to decide what smacks to you of being the most true. And do yourselves the favor, also, of searching for the reciepts as that is so, so very important.
