Agreed, seems there are more real users than shills/bots, and I try to avoid fighting them. If you take a little time and tag users you suspect of spreading misinformation, it gets pretty easy to identify the frequent offenders pushing Kremlin/CCP talking points.
awwwyissss
Yeah I don't want to yell at tankies either. They're generally trying to do the right thing, but unfortunately a combination of ignorance and arrogance means they're causing harm instead.
But the paid shills, fuck them. I hope they die in a drone attack as Ukrainians defend themselves from the sociopaths in the Kremlin.
I've intentionally left it unblocked because I want to do my part to make the fediverse succeed. But at this point that might be the best approach. I'll probably do that or just leave.
For what it's worth, I've always appreciated your positive and helpful contributions here. If Lemmy was full of users like you it would be fantastic.
I've almost stopped using Lemmy because of the kind of content you're describing. I've never even told anyone I use Lemmy because I don't want them to judge me by association. The politics on here is extremist, hateful, divisive, and non-fucking-stop.
I disagree that it's not CCP/Kremlin bots and shills. I think a LOT of it is. Without ongoing support from those malicious authoritarian governments, Lemmy.ml, lemmygrad, and Hexbear would have half the content and engagement.
Really nobody in the thread is going to talk about Kremlin disinformation campaigns? That's absolutely part of it.
Yeah it's probably just another Kremlin LLM
Yes I like the eyes too, they look like sneaky little guys
Oh my god, those fluffy lil stompers
I don't listen to or support any scientologist, including Beck
If nobody is renting out family homes, there will be no family homes to rent. Many people prefer to rent their home.
Why are you mad, Lemmy.ml and its constant propaganda and misinformation is one of the main reasons Lemmy isn't thriving.
