Saying one _____ is better than several others, without elaborating on criteria, when most in-depth arguments on the subject point the other way, is propaganda.
Right, I think you’re correct in what you said, but this thread is also propaganda in that it’s trying to sow division against Lemmy. Lemmy is going to get hit hard during the elections in the US and the trials of our former president because they can’t control the narrative as easily here. No one really cares if people stay, there are no advertisers to cater to, and you can’t troll (at least on lemmy.world). They’re trying to stoke everyone into being their worst selves so people leave or feel pushed out. It’s a solid propaganda technique against lemmy. I’m agreeing with you but adding on to it, but I also thought that’s what you meant.
