Ars hateboner continues for their former favouritest person ever Elon, today's article tries to pretend that only Twitter has misinformation issues:
In the wake of Hamas' deadly attacks on Israel this weekend—and the Israeli military's response—journ*lists, researchers, open source intelligence (OSINT) experts, and fact-checkers rushed to verify the deluge of raw video footage and images being shared online by people on the ground. But users of X (formerly Twitter) seeking information on the conflict faced a flood of disinformation.
While all major world events are now accompanied almost instantly by a deluge of disinformation aimed at controlling the narrative, the scale and speed at which disinformation was being seeded about the Israel-Hamas conflict is unprecedented—particularly on X [no further evidence is provided].
Journos self-own:
The situation is so bad on X right now that even seasoned OSINT researchers are being duped by fake accounts, including one that shared a false claim about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu being hospitalized over the weekend.
"Noo why can't I blindly trust random social media accounts 
?"
As always the comment section is full of the smartest most independent thinkers (and Marvel fans) on the entire web:
Twitter was where primary sources posted and journ*lists congregated.
Musk killed that.
Someone else points out that the 24/7 Musk sneedathon isn't healthy:
Is there any way I can mute stories about Musk from popping up on my feed? I swear you guys are in love with him. I get it, he's your competition and you want to use your platform to discredit him. But I came here for unbiased news and honestly, I don't think I'm getting that from Ars anymore. If you look into anyone's Twitter, or Snapchat, or Instagram, or Facebook, eventually you'll find something nasty in their past. Should we just assume that we can only get news from unbiased, trustworthy sources like Fox news and CNN? No? Maybe only Ars Technica? I'm sure all of your writers are paragons of virtue after all, since all you do is pan people more successful than yourselves for complete non-issues like what Twitter accounts they recommend.
and gets obliterated for it:
Four posts in, and three of them are actively defending misinformation while complaining about how much you hate Ars. Welcome to the forum! You're obviously gonna do just greeeaaat here, little buddy.
Let's finish with some "in this moment I am euphoric"-tier nonsense:
Anyone using X for "news" is not interested in news or information anyway.
Being interested in something and being knowledgeable about how to obtain said thing are not inherently linked states.

I remember when Facebook used to be the punching bag for “platforming the alt right” when journos controlled Twitter, funny how that changed

Facebook is surely 10000x worse for all misinformation because it's misinforming the people who are most likely to believe misinformation.

I don't think most online people remember Facebook exists.
I know a lot who use it, but I never get redirected there, or hear it mentioned online.

This is so depressing. What the Heck is the point of rDrama if we can't even spread misinformation properly?
