      Hey, tildes!

      A few weeks ago, I brought attention to Russian propaganda being shared on reddit. I deleted my reddit accounts, but I'm still tracking propaganda being shared on social media. The midterms are approaching quickly, so I'm asking for your help with the project I'm working on.

      1. Help with code: Improve what exists and add more features, heck, even documentation would be an improvement (I'm not a programmer).

      2. Find more propaganda sites: Right, left, Russian, Jamaican, whatever.

      3. Spread the word: Social media, irl friends, media, politicians, etc.

      16,831 deceptive Russian reddit posts.
      5,588 deceptive Iranian reddit posts.
