For the discussion of active measures and influence campaigns. With current events as they are, this is meant to be a space to discuss Russia-style propaganda and censorship in both the United States and around the world, with a particular emphasis on examples found within the reddit community. The goal is to create and maintain a space where anyone can share their point of view on this topic, even if the moderators disagree with you. Understandably given the topic, there is a lot of disinformation on all "sides". It's the the belief the moderators here that only way we will ever reach clarity and break free from the disinformation is by talking about it and learning from each other.

Subreddit Rules:
Civility. Please be kind and respectful to each other, and follow the principle of charity.
Submission Quality.
OC. We encourage OC, and insist that original research is both rigorous and evidence based. Don't submit posts that simply ask "is this account Russian?"
Links. Avoid posting links from sources which are highly biased or have a low factual rating.
Memes. Please avoid posting memes and other image posts. Use a self-post with enough content to contextualize the image instead.
Off-topic Posts and Comments. Submissions or comments should be relevant to Active Measures. r/ActiveMeasures is not a politics sub. While there is a great deal of overlap between politics and malign online influence, we expect posts and comments to be focused on the topics of disinformation, propaganda and other forms of espionage.
Self-Promotion. We welcome engaged members of the community to link to their own content. At our discretion, we will remove self-promoting submissions by users who are not participants on r/ActiveMeasures.
As for Reddit ToS, Please blank out usernames and any subreddit(s). Rather than crosspost from other subreddits, please post a screenshot with any usernames blanked out. Please do not harass any community that may have been mentioned here.
