all of the people who were part of Anonymous who were worth a damn at hacking back in the day work for the state department now. The movement could very likely have been a psyop, given how many high-level hackers from that era there are on government payroll.

You should probably find some active users to appoint as moderators, to reduce your workload.

If you explain why the source isn't trustable, that'll work for some people. But the people who wanna shout "but china bad" at the mear mention of it will just ignore that. So, ultimately - and unfortunate as it may be - this is one of the things that a hard stance must be taken on, and will likely be disrupting to your community. I.E. you're gonna have to remove any and all posts with these sources, and possibly ban users who repeatedly try to use these sources.

we decided against doing IP bans because it could keep users who use VPNs from logging in, since VPN IPs aren't always unique. I just banned this person for being a troll, but I'm not entirely sure if they're banned from the main branch or just Lemmygrad. I banned this person before for commenting a death threat on a main branch post. I don't remember how to do @s, but it might be worth getting the attention of one of the main branch admins for this.
