EU is slowly replacing the role of NATO, as the entity that does so much finger waging and then roll over.

Stop with the warnings and just push for fines or blocks.

The information that reveals the ugliness and hypocrisy of Europe and US always gets called misinformation

You are correct in the sense that things demonstrating hypocrisy are mislabeled and hidden on purpose but we're talking about the much larger circle on this Venn diagram of any kind of misinformation.

He's South African. He might eat a danish...

Memories rot over time. Apparently he's not. Well, South Africans have Shuttleworth and de Raadt for this to not be a final nail.

The biggest sources of misinformation - EU and US - pointing finger to other souces as misinformation.

When Twitter was Twitter the same concerns were outed. Now X is Twitter minus 80% of its employees. From an economic standpoint it seems that investing in moderation doesn't give you less concerns and complaints from the outside regarding disinformation, more extreme content, ... . The advertisers have the most impact, I think. Together with the users that will look for an alternative.
