Has anyone else noticed this, across the fediverse, Lemmy specifically. A lot of new users, but also a lot of first posts that are very inflammatory/rage baity.

Do we have another legit influx of new users? Or do we just have some bad actors trying to stir the pot? Or maybe I’m imagining it.

      We have a saying “People who think too highly of themselves and can’t fix their problems will always make up a bogeyman to blame”

      Did the tankies lead you to support the genocide? Did the tankies keep you from keeping Israel/US accountable for their crimes?

      No buddy, your “countries” did those all on their own and were proud of it. The countries are only changing their tone as the hypocrisy is failing to keep up with the lies.

      But you do you. You’re such good guys and have never done bad to anyone else and also “never” fought among yourselves.

      If it takes some Chinese and Russian trolls to divide you, you’re never really “together” bud. But again whatever makes you sleep at night.

      That’s a lame and cheap attack and also ridiculous.

      Try replying to these so-called “Russian and Chinese bot accounts” and see what happens

      You won’t get evasive and broken English, rather a long and thorough breakdown grounded in theory and history

              Aaaaand… we’re off!

              Degenerate tankies

              Lol

              white washing a genocide

              I can’t wait for this one. Pray tell what genocide?

              country that is no way communist

              What makes a country communist in your view? Only countries that never build any sort of government and never do any sort of production?

              “it’s a good thing that Stalin collaborated with the Nazis and split up Europe!”

              I would love a link that you have to someone making this argument

              “Not wanting to have you culture exterminate by the russians is Nazism!”

              Lol no. Glorifying Nazis like Stepan Bandera is Naziism. Doing ethnic cleansing in Eastern Ukraine is Naziism.

              Keep in mind this is not my first day on Threadiverse!

              Obviously, it takes time to absorb the lame “tankies bad” circlejerk from .world. Seems you have had some time to let it soak in.

        So people are just pretending that astroturfing by foreign nations isn’t real now? Cool.
