I appreciate that everyone is skeptical of all comments here.

And I'm glad people express that skepticism.

It's very clear there's manipulation here. And if you think you're immune, you shouldn't be participating in anonymous social media.

But I do appreciate that there are some people here to fight against the bots and threats to democracy, both foreign and domestic. Even if we can't tell who they are or what is manipulation and what is honest.

Be careful what you post. Be aware. Be skeptical. Talk to people in real life, because even if it's just people at the corner shop, that's a hell of a lot more valuable than here.

    Lest anyone be misled, I'm taking the opportunity to note that Lemmy is not anonymous social media. It's pseudonymous. We may not be using real names here, but nothing about this is private, and it's all publicly accessible. Just a PSA!

    pseudonymous

    The difference is a speed bump. It's a relevant one, but not that relevant, especially in the era of chatbots.
