University of Copenhagen: Hashtags and humour are used to spread extreme content on social media. “Conspiracy theories and incitement to harassment and violence abound on mainstream social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram. But the extreme content is often mixed with ironic play, memes and hashtags, which makes it difficult for authorities and media to know how to respond.”

De #socialmedia #verontwaardiging van de dag is voor @Joop (let op dit lijkt alleen een RSS-feed te zijn).
Die onder een artikel, waarin staat dat je voor (extreem-)rechts bij de talkshows van oorspronkelijk links-progressieve omroepen geen rode loper moet uitrollen, een lijstje "Delen:" plaatst met daarop eerst Facebook en X.

**Spaces of Hybridized Prefatory Extremism (HYPE) on Social Media**
"_While extremism is usually perceived to be a matter of extreme ideologies and methods, social media enables and shapes distinct hybridization processes by which conspiracy beliefs, personal grievances, and various ad hoc convictions are combined with ideology fragments, consequently producing new extremist narratives._"

I'm tired of constantly checking sources for others. I see too many posts with quotes and statements that turn out to be false or #AISlop after a simple search. Even quotes with real names, faked by AI! (The worst was a faked newspaper that doesn't exist).
I only boost posts with links to reputable original sources now.
Better check posts before you boost everything.
