So people are just pretending that astroturfing by foreign nations isn’t real now? Cool.

Try replying to these so-called “Russian and Chinese bot accounts” and see what happens
You won’t get evasive and broken English, rather a long and thorough breakdown grounded in theory and history

I don’t really have an opinion about whether “astroturfing by foreign nations” is widespread on the internet overall. I will note that we have to take the word of intelligence agencies and big tech companies as the only evidence in the public record that it’s happening.
What I am saying is that here on the fediverse, the people who throw around that accusation are childish and ill-informed every time.
Basically, these people are saying that they can’t even imagine the possibility of people believing differently than the national media narrative of their home country, which is a pretty embarrassing self-own if you ask me.

Degenerate tankies white washing a genocide being commited by a country that is no way communist is not “theory and history.”
And even “historical” discussion is usually along the lines of “it’s a good thing that Stalin collaborated with the Nazis and split up Europe!” or "Not wanting to have you culture exterminate by the russians is Nazism!
Keep in mind this is not my first day on Threadiverse! Playing dumb is not going to work with me.
