Official MAGA propaganda has come to Bluesky
(lemmy.nz)
Today, the US government has created accounts for multiple departments in a coordinated effort to manipulate the discourse on Bsky. Most of the engagement these accounts get is from freshly created accounts in the last 24 hours and some MAGA trolls.
Here are lists of the departments. You can use these to easily block or mute all of them. Starve them of the attention that they are seeking

And a list I created with all the people liking their shit, mostly fresh bots and trolls (the script is still WIP if anyone is interested):
BlueSky has handy user level moderation tools, with block/mute lists that you can subscribe to. There are also the default moderation settings that anre enabled for users to cut down on the amount of misinformation you are exposed to.
The best way to deal with misinformation is to starve it of views via subscribing to block/mute lists and keeping those default moderation tools on.
