    Like 2/3rds of Lemmy is unabashed Russian agitprop. The tell is when they blame democrats for things republicans do while deliberately misunderstanding how the federal government works.

      You have way too much faith in

      1. the average American civics education
      2. the ability of the broke-ass FSB to accomplish anything
      3. the size and notoriety of these tiny little lemmy communities.

      It might be time for you to take an internet break .

        Check your reading comprehension. I didn’t say bots, I said Lemmy uncritically repeats Russian agitprop. This aligns absolutely with my reckoning of the average American civics education, and Russia’s online information warfare is rivaled maybe only by Israel or China. Russian information warfare literally got Trump elected the first time, like what the fuck are you on?
