    It’s funny to hear all the crybaby dnc sycophants who support genocide saying the same dumb talking points again and again.

    I’m starting to think they are bots, because it would get boring just saying the same stupid shit over and over again.

      You can directly say you’re voting for Biden in your comment, and they’ll still screech that you want Trump to win.

        Its an election year, I guarantee there is significant astro turfing going on in the fediverse. I’d stake my bank account on it.

            Any combination of those, and including things like vote manipulation with lots of sock accounts, as well as the posting of links that advance their agenda. Wouldn’t take much at all. You obviously need to make it look natural, it’s not every comment or post on lemmy that gets hundreds of upvotes or downvotes. I’d wager you can significant alter lemmy feeds with like thirty co ordonated accounts so long as you stay on new or hot. The trickier part would be not using the same 30 accounts every time, but even still those numbers are peanuts compared to what troll farms and botters do on other social networks. Compared to that you could probably just loose a few interns on the whole of the fediverse if astro turfing was your goal.

        That’s ok, I regularly screech like a wild banshee lol. This is a silly anonymous online discussion forum.

        But yea, the circles the blue no matter who keep running in are laughable.

      I’m convinced they’re bots, lots of telltale signs of GPT in the style of prose.
