It is posted by trolls and automated accounts.

Disinformation is deliberate false or misleading content spread intentionally (often by trolls, bots/automated accounts, or coordinated campaigns). Friends may unknowingly share misinformation (not intentional disinformation), and advertisers or news outlets generally have different goals.
