‘Micro-influencers’ have collectively had a substantive impact on the debate.
SYDNEY: Holed up in a makeshift studio in Sydney’s Russian consulate, a pro-Putin activist on the run from Australian police is using the country’s upcoming indigenous rights referendum to push the Kremlin’s agenda.
But experts describe Boikov as part of a potent ecosystem of “micro-influencers” that, collectively, have had a substantive impact on a referendum debate that will shape Australia’s political future. But the referendum debate has been awash with misinformation, according to research by Queensland University of Technology’s associate professor in digital media Timothy Graham.
Throughout the campaign, AFP has debunked numerous falsehoods, from claims the intended indigenous advisory body would see landowners stripped of their properties to conspiracy theories decrying the vote as a United Nations plot to turn Australia into a totalitarian republic. And with this loose coalition it becomes “very easy to recruit certain populations into the Russian sphere of influence”, she said.“The Voice has nothing to do with Russia,” he said.
