a. misinformation is simply incorrect but that can go two different ways. it could be that "conventional wisdom" is incorrect and so it "appears" to be misinformation or it could be specifically intended to misinform and is known to be incorrect. you are assuming that only one of these is the case.
b. the supplier of said information. since this is nearly always for political purposes, that teams chosen stance.
c. its either a tactic or a response depending on whose team the viewer is on.
d. triggering the triggerable can be fun.

In the past there were many restrictions which have since been struck down by the courts. Things like inciting a riot have been interpreted so narrowly as to make it very difficult to prosecute. Today, we can advocate anything while previously you could not advocate overthrow of the government by force, there were restrictions on communists and socialists or calling people to resist the military draft. Today laws against obscenities are basically dead.
For an interesting case see Cohen v. California about a guy who walked into a courthouse with a T-shirt that said "Fuck the draft."
Do away with free speech and we also do away with free minds and also the West is deader than doornail.
Which is the direction things are going, there will be endless suck and abuse for likely a long time before freedom reemerges.
I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.
DARK AGES SUCK!
I don’t think that’s necessary. I think Social Media should be regulated so that they are required to identify the source of propaganda and disinformation posted on their system. More importantly Citizens United must be over turned.
I will never believe a corporation is a person until the State of Texas executes one of them.

One example of this happening was when the city denied a permit to speak to a man who traveled around making anti-Jewish speeches. Everywhere he spoke a disturbance occurred among the man's supporters and opponents attending the speech. The city denied the permit because of likely violence.
The court ruled the action an unconstitutional violation of free speech. The permit informed the city where and when the man would speak and it was their responsibility to provide adequate police protection.
When a man wanting to make anti-Jewish speeches in NYC the police commissioner was Teddy Roosevelt who assigned a Jewish officers to protect the man.
