In the Ukraine Conflict, Fake Fact-Checks Are Being Used to Spread Disinformation

Social media posts debunking purported Ukrainian disinformation are themselves fake. That doesn’t stop them from being featured on Russian state TV.

Researchers at Clemson University's Media Forensics Hub and ProPublica identified more than a dozen videos that purport to debunk apparently nonexistent Ukrainian fakes. The videos have racked up more than 1 million views across pro-Russian channels on the messaging app Telegram, and have garnered thousands of likes and retweets on Twitter. A screenshot from one of the fake debunking videos was broadcast on Russian state TV, while another was spread by an official Russian government Twitter account.

The goal of the videos is to inject a sense of doubt among Russian-language audiences as they encounter real images of wrecked Russian military vehicles and the destruction caused by missile and artillery strikes in Ukraine, according to Patrick Warren, an associate professor at Clemson who co-leads the Media Forensics Hub. "The reason that it's so effective is because you don't actually have to convince someone that it's true. It's sufficient to make people uncertain as to what they should trust," said Warren, who has conducted extensive research into Russian internet trolling and disinformation campaigns. "In a sense they are convincing the viewer that it would be possible for a Ukrainian propaganda bureau to do this sort of thing."

Would there be a media outcry if a despotic ruler prior to 2021 used our oil money to invade an innocent country and bomb their civilian population, like say Saudi Arabia and Yemen?

Bro don’t make out it’s only two randoms. You can add me to the list, just cause we have stuff to do IRL. Don’t mean it’s just them that share their views.

Slow from the ground sure. At their actual speed at bombing height nowadays? Fast as faaaaaaaaaaa

Only proper ground-to-air missiles, you aren't going to takeout any of the major bombers with a stinger.

A MANPAD can pick you up at 10km and engage you at an altitude of 6km.

6km isn't skimming trees.

Yes. Only my side has the best propaganda. Everything for your side is 100% legit and serious unbiased reporting on the conflict.

"These people that were so worried about Trump starting a war, seems to have no problem nuking the world now."

This planet sucks I need to find another one.

Question. You think Ukrainian is going to defeat Russia?

No. Russia can throw enough sh*t in to this to force a win. And they have to, Putin's legacy depends on it.

Russia will be sending back a lot of bodybags though. More than they will want to admit.
