I wasn’t intending rudeness, and did perceive rudeness in the form of bigotry, in yours. I can see how my comment could be perceived that way, and when I feel some weird way about others, I go outside, if only for a few moments (heavy schedule for a few months). Connecting with sunshine, fresh air, green space, watching squirrels, birds, hugging my favorite tree does wonders to preserve my sanity. I hope you’ll give it a try. I’m sorry I came off as rude, I was just taking a quick break between assignments, and I tend to be naturally terse, anyway, with exceptions. Like now.
Fair enough, I appreciate the explanation. I wasn’t being rude either, I’m warning people about how the Kremlin and CCP use shills on social media.
They’re authoritarian governments that regularly oppress, kill, lie, suppress information, and worse. They’re using the age old tactic of divide and conquer on social media because they can’t compete militarily. They’re here on Lemmy, especially on Hexbear, lemmygrad.ml, and Lemmy.ml.
Maybe, maybe not. Some people really do hold those opinions, for reasons not at all related to see see pee and Russia. Maybe they just noticed Big Business and billionaires get privatized profit and socialized loss while everyone else loses homes, then get criminalized for homelessness.
I’ll say it again: we need to push hard to effectively address and correct conditions of despair, instead of criminalizing symptoms of despair.
No, not maybe. Definitely. But yes, they often highlight legitimate issues, including corporate influence on politics, obscene wealth inequality, and mistreatment of some classes of people.
Kremlin or CCP paychecks.
This is not news conducive to either. Please get offline for a while, for your own sake, if not your loved ones.
Ignorance is bliss. Regardless, no need to be rude.

Til I’m CCP. Please.
Obviously not what I was saying.
