Abstract
In the modern digital era, social media platforms have become a breeding ground for disinformation, fake news, and malicious trolling. These problems erode trust, divide communities, and undermine the integrity of online discourse. This whitepaper introduces a decentralized token model designed to incentivize collective action against online toxicity. The token will reward users for contributing to a cleaner, more truthful online environment by engaging in disinformation detection, troll hunting, content flagging, and promoting positive interactions.
The token economy will be based on a grassroots approach, empowering community members to become the first line of defense against disinformation campaigns and malicious behavior. Community Notes, peer review systems, and decentralized moderation will form the backbone of this initiative. By incentivizing transparency and accountability, this token aims to restore the integrity of online spaces while fostering a collaborative and inclusive digital society.
Class Consciousness as a Framework: Understanding disinformation and troll farms through the lens of class consciousness is crucial because these tactics are often employed by corporate interests to manipulate public opinion and maintain the status quo. By spreading false information and creating division, these entities can distract and disempower the working class, preventing them from uniting against systemic inequalities. Class consciousness helps individuals recognize these manipulative strategies and fosters solidarity among the oppressed, enabling them to collectively challenge and dismantle the structures that perpetuate their exploitation. By promoting truth and class awareness, our memecoin project aims to empower individuals to see through the fog of disinformation and work together towards a more equitable society.
