@jon-nyc which false tweet do you believe had a bigger impact on the election and disenfranchised more voters? This meme, or The NY Times articles that were tweeted claiming the laptop was Russian disinformation?

The meme misleads some eligible voters away from voting entirely -- that's disenfranchisement. The NYT article's x/tweets may influence how some voters vote but do not mislead them away from voting.
"Big impact" does not necessarily mean "disenfranchisement." Any number of policy pronouncements or campaign ads or x/tweet campaigns can have "big impacts" on elections, but not "disenfranchisement."

Disenfranchised does not mean to remove the right to vote, it means to strip the power from a group of people. The falsehoods spread by the NYT and WP, very likely removed the power of millions of voters.
If the Biden laptop/corruption story had impact .4% of PA voters and .2% of GA, AZ, and WI voters, Trump would be President right now. Do you think that story and the Russian hoax impacted at least that small number of voters? I do.

I think that's a lead-pipe cinch. IIRC, somewhere around 15% of Biden voters may have not voted for him if they had known the Hunter laptop story was true.
