if you don’t stop upvoting memes and stupid subs
Who says "we're" up voting it? Nobody questions where the upvotes for "PuppyOfTheDay" come from? Once you concede the algorithm is rigged, it's silly to blame the humans for what's on your feed.
According to your history you are posting memes and shitposts yourself.

I guess I'm a highly sophosticated Palantir bot account trying to trick you into interacting with me.

Snakes on a Plane and Bernie have proven that what you see online is complete bullshit.
Biden got the boot because he was a no-hoper and his party must have been aware of his cancer. Kamala stood ZERO chance.
It sucks to have to admit that Trump and his fascists are popular. Very popular.
They are not popular. Like 30% of the voting eligible public voted for him.

I mean if you read any Reddit that during the road to the recent USA elections, Biden should have won by an extremely large margin, and later , Kamala.
If we used Reddit threads of those months as reference, we'd currently been talking about how hard Kamala won
But she didn't
So yeah, take whatever is on Reddit, and now Lemmy, with an asteroid sized pinch of salt
Not saying those comments were fake, they certainly represent someone, now, wheater that someone is a sizeable amount of voters...
As always, trust but verify. I was telling people here for months that Kamala hadn't won yet and everybody needed to get out and spread the word on Project 2025.
We saw what happened, and we see a lot of opinions here on Lemmy. Trust but verify.

That's assuming that whoever didn't vote disapprove of him, and that's false.
Whoever didn't vote, was comfortable enough to not oppose him (or Kamala for that matter) and let him get to the white house.

What happened with Snakes on a Plane? I'm only aware of the movie.

Palantir, the Peter Thiel-backed company that sold big data services to ICE and NYPD, has a CEO who is a 'self-described socialist'
Palantir is known for sorting data for spy agencies and ICE, but its CEO portrays himself as a socialist rather than a cut-throat neoliberal, according to new report.
Business Insider (www.businessinsider.com)
He referred to himself as "socialist" in 2018, apparently.
His actions show he is absolutely not.

Of the National variety.
I mean, that's right on the mark. The reason they called themselves National Socialists isn't because they were socialists, but because they knew that their true beliefs were so abhorrent that they needed to lie about being socialists.
Elon Musk has been recently shown to have done the same thing.

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

You mean the company started by musks fucktoy is doing some fucked up things? I don’t believe you.

You're just rationalizing.

Based on online hype, it could be believed that it was going to be the highest grossing movie of all time.
It was an unmitigated disaster and complete flop.
Nobody went to see the piece of shit. Everybody talked about it online.

Huh, I'm amazed - I wasn't exposed to any of that. I'd only seen the memes about it afterwards.

Yes. Reddit allows payola posts. Of course they are.

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.

Officially yes. I got banned for saying "Musk fuming is violently toxic", site wide and permanently from 6 subreddits. Others got banned just saying "Luigi is innocent". Try it out. That reads more like quashing free speech to me.
Disinformation in the ads, yes. Also front page stuff making past moderation. Today in r/science I saw "Democrats are less tolerant of Republicans than vice versa" and a load of unscientific hogwash saying Republicans are not as intolerant as Democrats think. Go find it yourself if you don't believe me.
That seems like a platform of disinformation to me.
I’m sorry but I don’t believe you were banned site wide for saying that, and no one has been banned for saying “Luigi is innocent”. Not a chance. Can you please share the ban message and link to the comment?
As for tolerance, well I’m sorry but I think it’s pretty clear that that is right lol. Coincidentally I saw this last night on Twitter:
As we saw with Simone Biles recently, who was attacked by her fellow democrats because she wasn’t pro-trans enough in her vile attack on Riley Gains, the “tolerant left” are anything but. They even like to proudly cite the “paradox of tolerance” at every opportunity.

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.

Exactly, it blew up exponentionally around 2016 and became of importance.
That's when the US regime put Jessica Ashoosh in place.
All the clowns leaving Reddit bcs now with Trump 'Reddit isn't free' are a joke.
They have been living a lie -

LOL genocide Blue MAGA still crying over their well deserved loss months later.

He's confused with national-socialist.

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.
