#USA #California #MediaLiteracy #Misinformation #Disinformation #CriticalThinking #FactChecking: "California next year will become one of the few US states to teach students media literacy, a move experts say is imperative at a time when distrust in the media is at an all-time high and new technologies pose unprecedented challenges to identifying false information.
A state bill signed into law this fall mandates public schools to instruct media literacy, a set of skills that includes recognizing falsified data, identifying fake news and generating responsible internet content.
Researchers have long warned that the current digital ecosystem has had dire consequences on young people, and have argued that such instruction could make a difference. The US surgeon general has cited digital and media literacy support as one way to combat the youth mental health crisis spurred by social media. The American Psychological Association already has urged parents and schools to teach media literacy before they expose young people to social media platforms."

On #YouTube specifically it's more about the loudness of...video thumbnails ! The overall impression ends up being one of utter desperation...

“We review three types of cognitive strategies for implementing critical ignoring: self-nudging, in which one ignores temptations by removing them from one’s digital environments; lateral reading, in which one vets information by leaving the source and verifying its credibility elsewhere online; and the do-not-feed-the-trolls heuristic, which advises one to not reward malicious actors with attention.”

I've been thinking a lot lately about the lessons of Masha Gessen, a #Russian reporter who talks about the role of language and #disinformation in Russian media.
One of the goals of fascists is not to present an alternate reality, but to confuse the idea of reality itself.
Today we see people happily misusing terms like #genocide and #warcrimes, saying that they don't mean what they mean, but they mean any kind of attack, or any kind of military action. This kind of confusion is part of the deliberate effort to confuse people to make them easier to control.

Hey, #Fediverse / #Mastodon
Is this the future of social media? It certainly is better than Silicon Valley/commercial-surveillance disinformation platforms by orders of magnitude, yes...
...but personally, I have a different view.
I recommend reading the "Public Service Internet" manifesto. It was a privilege to read it. This is one of my greater research interests as well.

Tl;dr: an internet infrastructure of the people, by the people, and for the people — including democratic *governance*, user representation (suffrage), and citizen co-ownership of resources. NOT government-owned.
Of course there are some bits I disagree with too.

Why treat X any different than Gab or Truth Social? 🤔
Those that remain on X are likely doing more harm than good by legitimizing the platform, assisting the owner in his attempts to reshape our information spaces in a way that suits his needs, not ours.
