    Oh there’s plenty of kids, who else would be legitimately convinced that the USSR was a good place? Lol

      …will I get called a nutjob if I say intentionally nefarious agents possibly aligned with certain governments and institutions?

        I mean it’s possible, but we don’t have the population to really support the effort IMO. That kind of stuff usually sticks to the places it can get the most eyeballs and the quarter of a million lemmy users ain’t the place.

          I think you’re underestimated how widespread, advanced, and insidious those efforts are, tbh

            I think you believe lemmy is larger and more important than it is.

            There’s a reason everyday people don’t get hacked, because bad actors aren’t seeking out bill and his $1740 bank account, they’re going after Microsoft or coca cola.

            Russian bots? Sure. On reddit. With millions of people. Not lemmy with like 15 comments and a few hundred upvotes.
