There have been numerous efforts to train the public, advocate for more responsible use of social media and fact checking, and I don\u2019t believe the goal is to completely eliminate lies from the world, but rather give society an opportunity to be able to tell a lie from the truth. This is important because even with the claim that there is nothing new under the sun, the way we consume information is changing. The work is done when an audience is able to tell an egg from an avocado seedling.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are lies we don\u2019t mind because they reveal what we are paying attention to, and they don\u2019t have a direct bearing on the quality of our lives. I personally don\u2019t want to live in a world without conspiracy theories, \u201cstory za jaba\u201d, stories that begin with \u201cyou know I heard\u201d or a world where we don\u2019t have to ask where Kate Middleton is and what a whole princess is doing with an adobe photo editing app. That kind of mis\/dis-information is good for social commentary.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But there are institutions that should not disinform the audience, particularly with regard to services and goods that directly affect our quality of life. One of these institutions is the government. We know that governments invest in disinformation and they have many reasons to do that. State sponsored disinformation reveals a number of things. First, it speaks to the administration\u2019s competence and it\u2019s attitude towards it\u2019s citizens. The quality and the investment into disinformation displays the patterns and nature of impunity within that administration. State disinformation is dangerous, but when there is seemingly no thought, creativity or some intellectual investment involved means that the groups that hold the government accountable must take note of that and strategize differently.\u00a0 Institutions that take time to carefully curate a narrative can or could be exposed and shamed into action.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">State-sponsored disinformation also sheds some insights into an administration&#8217;s priorities, and areas it will not be investing in. The time and energy spent in actively disinforming citizens would have actually been put into working on projects that don\u2019t need a disinformation campaign. If a state claims to have allocated a certain amount of money in a health project when it really hasn\u2019t, then that should be an indication that the particular project will not be done. The caveat here would be if an administration is promoting a narrative to buy time. But should this be the case, it will be seen in the quality of the narrative.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In light of all this, seeing that state-sponsored disinformation can be some sort of roadmap, it would be important for us to decentre these narratives so that we are not distracted by them, and instead focus on the question: \u201cwhat do we deserve?\u201d This will mean not focussing too much on the manifesto, but making the constitution the supreme manifesto moving forward. It will also mean co-creating different collaborative strategies and supporting the \u201clone\u201d voices and institutions that are pushing back, and reminding us of the things we truly deserve as citizens.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the meantime, here\u2019s:\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><b>What I\u2019m Reading: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/barazalab.us19.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=bcaf2780ffb904dd8949bef9b&amp;id=7eb3392ef6&amp;e=fb26f5106b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding Me<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an Oprah&#8217;s Bookclub Pick memoir by EGOT winner and powerhouse actress Viola Davis.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><b>What I\u2019m Watching: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m getting my nostalgic fix from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/barazalab.us19.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=bcaf2780ffb904dd8949bef9b&amp;id=a1216f3a94&amp;e=fb26f5106b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Young Sheldon <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on Netflix.
