I thought you were just kidding, but then I read his post history.
He’s from Lemmygrad. I hope everyone defederates them eventually
Oh absolutely. While I love baseless accusations, accusations are better when it’s obvious.
Edit: and check homies history… it’s pretty obvious.
I hope they don't. Counter narrative comments are healthy, even Communist ones.
only if the people on the other side are arguing in good faith, which a lot of them over on lemmygrad arent. they use textbook propaganda tactics and tow the kremlin line religiously.
I do appreciate seeing more perspectives, but Lemmygrad is open that they don’t intent to push things in good faith.
I will say that the more socialist (than I’m used to) lemmy.ml has been interesting, but the lemmygrad spots are a silly but dangerous echo chamber
I should have read one comment down before responding. This is absolutely the correct answer.
The fake communists don’t want to hear them though, so there isn’t really any sort of debate.
Source: banned on lemmygrad.ml and I’m a pretty far leftist.
True, bro. Lemmy should be another arm of the CIA.
I like it when people make up statements because they can’t refute what is actually being said.
Nowhere did this person say that.
Says the guy who posted "found the Russian". I understand you're trying to back up your CIA co-worker, but there is nothing to refute in the post I replied to, so you're not making any sense. He just wanted to defederate from Lemmygrad (guess why).
You got me there. Now I gotta get a new job.
His post history is no different to his comments here??
Yeah, but I didn't expect it be nearly every single comment.
I have alts for current affairs and local normal stuff; this one is supposed to be for hobbies like Tolkien and fantasy stuff but I keep getting dragged into other stuff lol.
