Do you agree with Destiny's take that misinformation is just as much of a problem on the left as it is on the right?

Misinformation is effective. It will be utilized by both sides to further their propaganda. It is absolutely dumb for you or destiny to expect one side to cuck themself and not engage in misinformation. The left isn't gonna sit back and leave the power vacuum of misinformation to be dominated by magatards. The whole maga campaign made every other political movement realize that they absolutely have to engage in misinformation, because if they don't the right wing reactionaries willl end up flooding the space (as they have). To counter this, left wing propagandists (like vaush and hasan) have been effective at using misinformation to make reactionary content that kinda levels the playing field. For 4 years of trump rule, magatards used misinformation to its fullest, and all of their opponents were blessed with the chore of spending hours fact-checking. Because that's what effective misinformation does, it puts an disproportionate effort on the fact-checker.
