I think misinformation, disinformation, and conspiracy theories might not be the best way of understanding what the far right is doing.
Instead, they're propagating urban myths, superstitions, stereotypes, and emotional reactions in a post-literate culture.
Likewise, if you're interested in reason and facts, glorified text prediction machines are no good for you.
But if you want to know the urban myths and stereotypes in a post-literate world?
They're perfect.
