Influence campaigns in full effect this week, even on Lemmy.
Me, as a American: Huh, we just set up camps in Guantanamo Bay to pick up immigrants? That’s fucked up.
Also Me, as a American: China does some shit with the uyghu? That’s fucked up.
Society: yeah fuck China!
Also me, as a American: openAI stole art. Wow.
Also me, as a American: Deepsink stole from OpenAI? Hilarious.
Society: Hey fuck you for supporting China! You can’t even write Tiananmen square on there!

Have you read none of the comments?
Of course I read them, I got the notifications, all the comments are weird! 😭

They also would never proscecute any journalist until the ends of the earth such as Snowden and Assagne when they make Western crimes publjc.
