  Hanlon’s razor, my friend. Lemmy is either filled with “bots” for no better reason than to try to persuade the 5k active users which will not be persuaded or it’s just another bunch of random people, a good percentage of which will always be idiots.

  I think the latter is a lot more likely, don’t you?

    Your point would be very persuasive if we already hadn’t had a bunch of high profile bots exposed…

      Maybe you’re right, dunno. To me they just seem like useful idiots of authoritarian regimes. People that legit believe the shit they’re saying. I hope you’re right, that’d make the whole thing a bit less sad, imo
