@japanskier I will not be surprised if in the near future some intrepid journalist discovers that these “#greenpeace activists” are actually an #astroturfing #propaganda front group financed by the #fossilfuels power industry.

No surprise at all.

They’ve done this before & they’ll do it again.

The group had started sharing one story every day at peak traffic time. Then he and his friends would write comments that connected the crime to drugs. That was, in part, how #Duterte's "drug war" became seen as something necessary in Philippine life.

That was the tactic Facebook didn't pay attention to. What we now call "#astroturfing" - the fake bandwagon effect-however, was extremely efficient. 2/2

"Canada’s Energy United is claiming to be a grassroots, non-profit organization, but it really, really isn’t. … It’s pretending to be a not-for-profit organization, living off of donations from the little guys in the beleaguered oil and gas industry."

〝There is a large, multilingual astroturfing effort around #Cop28 on Twitter right now involving at least 100 fake accounts. The accounts in question are promoting UAE foreign policy, bashing UAE's enemies, and burnishing the UAE's environmental record〞

@RedBent Wenig überraschend. Ich halte es für äußerst wichtig, die Bevölkerung endlich mal über den Begriff "#Astroturfing" aufzuklären:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astroturfing Der Abschnitt über Beispiele in Deutschland ist bereits ziemlich aufschlussreich, und ist wohl nur die Spitze des (einzigen wachsenden statt schmelzenden) Eisbergs 😉

Ja, ist denn schon 1. April? „E-Fuels for Future“ - wohl eine Kampagne der Mineralölindustrie mit gekauften „Demonstrant:innen“? Mein Kopf ist schon ganz locker vom Schütteln…

Pro-meat #astroturfing in the #Paris metro. First time I see something like this around here.

The only path forward for the fossil fuel industry is to lies obfuscate and deceive.

Ahora, ¿por qué "astroturfing"? En 1965 se inauguró el Astrodome, estadio de Houston,Texas. Allí jugarían los Houston Astros de la MLB. El estadio esperaba solucionar un problema: la temporada de béisbol en EE.UU. se juega sobre todo en verano y en Houston el verano es muy caliente y muy húmedo, por lo que el Astrodome fue construido con un techo (o "domo"). Pero esto creo un nuevo problema: el béisbol se juega sobre pasto y el pasto no puede crecer sin sol. #Astros #astroturfing

The “grassroots” backlash to a traffic reduction scheme in Oxfordshire is being boosted by an international network of established climate and Covid science deniers and amplified by right-wing media, #DeSmog reports.
