I know they’ve always been on Lemmy, but it seems like the past few weeks it’s slowly increasing, making me want to just stay on beehaw /local. Showing up on more communities, even on instances that ban that type of trolling explicitly.
Anyone else notice this?
Note: When I’m saying Tankie here, I’m not referring to far leftists, socialists, anti-capitalists, etc. I’m talking about trolls that act leftist but their actual intent is to cause infighting and support authoritarian regimes. Sealioning, all that stuff.
Yep. Can’t believe I’m saying this, but but they’re definitely some kind of (Russian?) bots. Their argumentation is non-existent or too dumb even for a tankie and most of them cosplay being from some random country of the global south.
I’m so glad people are starting to realize this.
