    Now ask yourself, who was behind the botnet pushing the narrative that Russian social media bots were briefly stopped. I’m no fan of the Russians, but I’m also cognizant that they’re wielded as a boogeyman by the West for their own agendas.

      Now ask yourself, if you’re not getting paid to spread this bullshit, how a useful idiot are you?

        Why are we pretending only 1 faction doesn’t have a massive bot net, while that faction includes the CIA and NSA?

        I bet even Arbies has a massive bot network lol, you just can’t trust anything these days.

            Are they tankies or just motivated actors working an angle of misinformation and disinformation? Genuinely, is there a tankie problem or is that a catch-all phrase here?

            I don’t know what going on anymore, I just keep seeing such radical far right /russian disinformation content and I don’t know how to make it stop. Is it a lemmy problem?

      Sorry, but you’ve implied bad things can happen without being Putin’s direct fault. Therefore you must be a Russian TrollBot, since The Guardian and AP agree that no real people would ever express such a horrific idea.

      /S that’s sadly necessary, since there are definitely users on here who believe that, even if they wouldn’t use those words to express it.
