John, The rapid spread of disinformation is an unfortunate reality of our current political environment. While we react to the latest conspiracy theory to hit the mainstream, another false narrative is already forming online.

That’s why an essential component of our work is detecting and monitoring these narratives as they are forming. Here’s what we’re seeing this week:

• As conservative states grow increasingly draconian in their marginalization of the trans community, hate speech against trans people is growing.
• We’ve identified new anti-trans slander being used by far right-wing groups across 24 different platforms.

These are the top authors posting on the narrative during the last week across all platforms.

Identifying disinformation is only the beginning of our work. It’s going to take all of us to effectively dismantle these disinformation ecosystems.

We want to hear from you. What conspiracy theories and disinformation are you seeing online?

Thanks for joining our efforts,

Keith Presley
