You guys can’t think there are seriously paid bots on lemmy. There are like 10,000 users. It’s basically a niche message board. Reddit is a valuable target because it has millions of users. Facebook, instagram, Twitter. These places are being astroturfed. But lemmy? I honestly don’t believe it. It doesn’t even have a core of users in any particular country. The small user base is spread all over the world. It just isn’t a target of these campaigns.
People are complicated. Everyone always points to “all that anti Kamala talk ended right after the election!” Yeah, maybe a lot of the pro-Palestinian anti Kamala people saying they wouldn’t vote for her stopped speaking so publicly because the reality of the other option sunk in. That doesn’t mean those people are paid trolls or bots. It means their argument got much more difficult when trump started plotting out his Gaza hotel. Those feelings are still legitimate. The feeling of not being able to sign your name to the lesser of two evils when that “lesser” is still funding and arming the genocidal force. People couldn’t swallow that on a personal level. But as soon as trump was elected, because it was one of two options, for the sake of not being angrily brigades, people stopped talking about it.
It’s a much more nuanced issue than bots on lemmy.
Lemmy is in a growth stage. That's exactly the time groups would want to start embedding bots to give them the most possible credulity for when they're needed.

According to the comments r/europe_sub and r/canada_sub might be involved as well.

Oh no, those reddits are all modded by the same people!

It'll be interesting too as federations are a bit of a wild-west right now with some domains dropping off or being federated, while others may still be created in the future

Huh, I'm amazed - I wasn't exposed to any of that. I'd only seen the memes about it afterwards.
Think about opening your favorite social media app, and seeing 60% of the posts in support of something... And then when the day comes that thing receives about 1% of RL support.

How can I share a comment that has been removed? The original is not accessible to me.
Here's all I have (happened in justguysbeingdudes, and 4 others):
Hello, You have been permanently banned from participating in r/harrypotter because your comment violates this community's rules. You won't be able to post or comment, but you can still view and subscribe to it.
Note from the moderators:
Deliberate repost of content removed by by Reddit. "[This comment was edited in protest to Reddit banning me for the following "violent" comment: "Elon musk fuming is fatally toxic.]"
If you have a question regarding your ban, you can contact the moderator team by replying to this message.
Reminder from the Reddit Admin team: If you use another account to circumvent this community ban, that will be considered a violation of the Reddit Rules and may result in your account being banned from the platform as a whole.
But no point in further engaging with a bad faith troll. I bet you believe Trump won the 2024 election with no tampering or unfair purging. I don't think evidence works on your kind of person. Therefore you are unlikely to convince me of anything.

The ban message usually has the offending comment in it.
The one you just posted clearly states why you were banned from r/harrypotter - you admitted to deliberately reposting content that was removed already. Even if that wasn't the content that was removed, you told them that you were doing it.
Also if you were banned site-wide then you wouldn't have been able to edit that comment in order to get banned from the harry potter sub. So did you actually get banned from reddit, or just from a few subs? Individual mods banning you is different to admins banning you. Your story doesn't add up.
I hate that you're making me even remotely defend reddit lol. Reddit is a far left agenda pushing shithole. You will not be banned from the entire site for saying "Elon musk fuming is fatally toxic". You just won't. Were you actually perma-banned from the entirety of Reddit, not just r/harrypotter?
But no point in further engaging with a bad faith troll.

Oh so you think the election was "stolen" do you? I thought that didn't and couldn't happen?

Reddit was already compromised. For those that were there, there was incident that showed that most of the top posts made are made by a handful accounts on several subbreddits. Keep an eye for things like this, in fact you should be suspicious of .world and their actions.

How old are you, just wondering?

Why? I've been working for nearly 30 years.
How old are you? How about instead of trying to find ways to discredit me and find some "gotcha!" you try and just have an adult conversation? You've already resorted to calling me a "bad faith troll" simply because I said your story doesn't add up, now you're trying to get personal details to try and use that against me? lol

Well now I have a sinking feeling in my stomach. I'm sorry you have been failed by the education system. Wish you the best.

Says the person that unironically said this....
I bet you believe Trump won the 2024 election with no tampering or unfair purging. I don’t think evidence works on your kind of person. Therefore you are unlikely to convince me of anything.
lol. Also says the person who was participating in r/harrypotter lol. I think you are still in the education system, and are proof that it is failing.
The education system was significantly better in my time, which is why I can think critically and listen to opposing viewpoints without getting "triggered" and start name calling and attacking.
We're done here now, right? No point wasting any more time?

You don't think there was unprecedented purging of voter rolls? That's really sad.

This is exactly how voat died. There may have been an ounce of legitimacy early on. It veered into blatant far right accounts posting every top post. It's obvious this kind of thing happens on lemmy too. Especially on certain instances. For now at least the federation model appears to be doing its thing.

Damn this explains why I never saw it but did heard of it online
Kinda like the opposite with Avatar from Cameron. The more people diss on the fans, the more they galvanize to see it

Who cares? Anyone still drinking the reddit cool aid is just asking for a leopard to eat their face.

Removing people who aren't allowed to vote from voting rolls? You're against that?
Funny how this "the election was stolen" narrative is taking hold among the left now, despite laughing off any suggestion from the far right of it happening in 2020 lol.

I waited 20 years to see that movie.
What a piece of shit

Yup. I've worked in tech for nearly 20 years. Most people who work in tech don't give a shit about the ethics of what they do or where they work if the money is good.
This is a screenshot from one of the discords of current and/or previous coworkers, but the sentiment is everywhere
Sleepwalking into nazi germany with that attitude.

Good thing I switched to .dbzer0.

Unfortunately many of the people I work or have worked with are from all over the world, and many of them share these ideals. I took a big pay cut 5 years ago to move from the ad/ecommerce industry to work at an emergency management SaaS company.
The app I now work on is used to save lives, whereas the customers I was producing work for at my last job would do anything for the extra dollar. Knowing where my time is going towards the general good is very rewarding. Yet many people I spoke to in my industry were confused at my decision.
Late stage capitalism and fascism I think eventually are inseparable. Just the centralization of power and wealth consolidation that fails everyone involved in the system except those at the top
