Are the fools, shills? Or just lazy thinkers? Intentional or accidental misinfo?  It's a mix. Shills seed garbage into the mix on the chan/kun level, it's then spread to the 'expanded' level by the unwitting and further pushed/defended inorganically by shills at that level, which causes it to spread further and further. What makes things more difficult is that the 'expanded' level is not actually hierarchically "above" the 'social media & so-called decoders' level; disinfo (deliberate) and misinfo (unwitting) can jump from chans/kun to either 'expanded' or 'social media' levels without any proper vetting or critical thinking in between. Even with that said, there's every possibility of the disinfo starting outside of the kun/chan level and then finding its way there. Exceptions to every rule, as they say. @MolochHunter @FractalizingIron
