I don’t even tell people I use Lemmy, let alone recommend it, because of how much authoritarian propaganda there is on here.
I love the idea and won’t give up on it easily, and I hope other users can join me in making it a better place by calling out propaganda.
Fuck Meta. God damn cancer on society.
I’m guessing there were too many people supporting for Harris for their liking. They lost control and it was harming their preferred candidate so they killed it.
Go back to lemmy.ml with the other authoritarian propagandists
You guys keep disregarding any and all criticism of capitalism
Spend three seconds on Lemmy and you’ll see how wrong this is.
Can you give an example? Are you talking about propaganda from a government or something else?
Centralization is still a problem, but LW doesn’t have as much propaganda and aggressive moderation
I think this is too nuanced for lemmy.ml to handle, they prefer black and white
There are many news stories in mainstream and alternative media about the Kremlin interfering in elections etc. They use anonymous accounts to influence massive amounts of people.
The Kremlin is willing to spend trillions of dollars for their war of conquest in Ukraine, of course they’re also investing in a much cheaper and more politically palatable cultural war online.
They don’t care… you’re arguing with Dimitri in St. Petersburg.
His goal is to use Israel’s genocide in Gaza as a wedge issue to get people angry so they don’t vote for Biden. That way the Kremlin can get their asset into the White House again. Trump has already tried to cut support for Ukraine and NATO before the Kremlin even started their barbaric war, no doubt he’ll continue enabling the Kremlin if he wins again.
Side bonus any time Dimitri gets political extremes fighting each other and weakens the social fabric of the US.
Right, but that’s not very good propaganda now is it? With 8 seconds of footage that doesn’t really show anything, they need to spin it somehow.
More like another Afghanistan, like the one the broke the USSR.
Except Russia has already lost ten times as many troops in a fifth of the time.
Weird to see a non-biased post about this conflict with a respectable news source on Lemmy.
What do you mean specifically when you say “the media”?
Yes I think you’re right about the Kremlin’s approach: they exacerbate weaknesses that are already there.
They understand Kremlin oppression.
Yes fair enough
Should have happened 6 months ago
If someone invaded your country and started murdering people you’d want to win the war.
Hexbear with more mindless hate, what a surprise.
