Well, be that as it may, you only have 3 options in front of you; you can complain about it, shut up, or post what your problem is and why the others are wrong.
Right now, you haven’t even said what your problem with it is.
What part is misinformation even would be a good place to start.
There’s a pinned post right now where you can vote to kill the bot. I ultimately blocked it because it was at best useless - the sources I didn’t recognize it didn’t either, and I saw it endorsing British tabloids which is outright harmful. Maybe I would have liked the Wikipedia addition, because the spoiler tag works on my Lemmy client, but people already do this in comments in a more relevant way on an article to article basis.
That poll seems quite flawed. They’re not counting the people that hate it so much that they’ve blocked it, and interestingly, the stupid fucking thing commented on the poll, and got a big pile of downvotes - yet somehow, there are more votes to keep the damn thing. It doesn’t add up.
It can, though. There’s absolutely a group of people who found it annoying or problematic enough to block, but not enough to vote to remove it for everyone including the people who do like it. I did vote to get rid of it, but I’m not going to be upset if it stays because I don’t totally disagree with that view.
Also, give it a couple of days and spread the word that the poll exists so it can be the most representative sample possible, I don’t think it’s been up for 24 hours yet. Also, the same poll is up in other communities which also use the bot, vote where you’re subbed.

How the fuck y’all managing to make this garbage bot even worse? Just stop.
Block it and move on with your life?
I will not turn a blind eye to harmful misinformation.
Then post a correction
It should not be my responsibility to go around posting corrections to misinformation. It should just not be posted in the first place.

What do you disagree with here?
Why don’t you just block everybody who doesn’t like it? Then it can just be you and the bot alone on all the threads.
