After leftists were rattled by Trump's victory and Brexit, they invented the "Misinformation + Disinformation" psyop out of thin air to justify massive online censorship.

It wouldn't surprise me of this idea was coined by the CIA and/or MI5/MI6.

When the "misinformation + disinformation" psyop mostly fell through, they went full steam ahead on digital ID, which is a much older globalist project, related to the UN's Agenda 21 / Sustainable Development (see e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ID2020)
