Facebook has certainly become a dumpster of generated ”science” groups that are just honeypots for tinfoil sites.

However, these operators fool the algorithm into thinking it’s important precisely by putting on the front lies that the science-minded will want to correct, but enough will support because it fits their confirmation bias. This promotes a fight.

It’s like an industry repeating the pattern of antivaxx groups in mid 2010’s. 🤦‍♂️

@gimulnautti I saw that shit on Hellbook, too, and I am not sure others have noticed. It's concerning.

@pinkdrunkenelephants Yeah it is. It’s a curious mix of Russian disinformation tactics, social engineering & Nigerian scams.
