    I’ve been thinking that fact checking alone is not enough. Are there any projects focused on identifying the sources of false talking points?

        I don’t think so. Much of it gets funneled or even created from the top.

        I was surprised in 2020 by how many “grassroots” election conspiracy theories became popular because they were promoted by the Trump team.
