Join Truth Brigade – Disinformation Disruption Starts HERE!
Grassroots-powered lie-stopping. Person by person; mind by opened mind.
Yes! A bunch of grassroots volunteers can throw a meaningful wrench into the democracy-destroying lie machine. Independent studies prove that we can persuade a lot of people to stop spreading lies with just one strategic message or conversation. Online and offline, in person and on social media, you, along with more than 6,000 other Truth Brigade members, will clear the path to a sustainable democracy!
Volunteers are the lifeblood of the Truth Brigade.
Truth Brigade messaging tactics rest on the power of authentic, positive conversations. Volunteers learn to find common ground with people who are misinformed, and to encourage those people to check the sources of disinformation before sharing. We shift mindsets and open hearts – that’s why so many volunteers stick around and bring in more people.
Through disrupting disinformation, we hope to help reclaim a civil society built on the shared value of the pursuit of objective truths. The primary role of the Truth Brigade in this space is to mobilize and train grassroots activists to disrupt the flow of disinformation and misinformation through peer-to-peer sharing of consistent messages and tactics that:
- Discourage interaction with disinformation, so it loses momentum, and
- Encourage critical thinking, so our work extends beyond any single message and empowers individuals to question before clicking.
