Disinfo

One of the main goals of disinformation campaigns is, rather to get you to believe what the poster is saying (although they’d love that), it’s instead to get you to doubt everything and everyone.

In times like these it’s extra important to have a solid ground in philosophy.👩🏻‍🏫
Because if you have that you’re already used to doubting everything and everyone.💁🏻‍♀️

A philosopher already doubts her own senses and basic existence, let alone what others are saying.

The other main goal is to lull us into apathy and inaction. When it comes to resisting that, philosophy is more of a hindrance than a help so I don’t know what to do there. Action isn’t wrong, as long as it’s right action, and that’s where philosophers like me can get super tangled up. I don’t want a solution that’s worse than the original problem.
