Yeah, we should all be out protecting mega corps from bankruptcy by fighting inconsequential misinformation on obscure social media platforms. Where would the world be without heroes like you? Thank you for your service.

So you think it's okay to spread misinformation if it's about a giant corporation?
Misinformation is never okay, as it muddies the waters and makes it hard to know what you can trust. If we idly stand by and let a lemmy instance degrade to the point where garbage posts like this are commonplace, it becomes difficult to sift apart the actual news and stuff that matters from the shit deluge of misinfo.
Which means, yes, calling out misinformation / shit posts even if it's about a megacorp, because shit in the water is still shit in the water.
There's no misinformation you're just pissed you got called out.
You and I have very different definitions of misinformation then.
Some of us live in reality and some of us accept advertisements in products you paid for. 🤷
Whether or not you care about ads doesn't have any bearing on what is, and isn't, misinfo.
I don't like ads either and use piholes on my network.
Doesn't change the fact the news article is misinformation, plain and simple.
