    You’d be a lot more effective if you just shared the polls right away.

      I still think I’m very effective. Don’t be swayed by a downvote botnet, look for the signs of organic behavior.

        no one’s programming a botnet over your attitude. people are just trying to gently encourage a less snotty behavior

          They’re programming a botnet to push their political agenda. Mostly Tankies do it. This happens to overlap with Luigi Worship because they’re pushing the narrative that he is some kind of patron saint of the working class murdering authorities and tearing down the state with violence even though he himself probably has no such goals or opinions.

          Tankies would love that outcome. Tankies want the USA to destroy itself.

          If you really don’t think botnets exist on lemmy fr everything from posts, comments, and votes then you’re supremely naïve.

          And to be clear I am not calling every Luigi supporter a bot. I am saying it isn’t organic for every voice of reason to go 3 - 34 in a few minutes.

          No no no, people can’t possibly dislike his comments. It has to be a coordinated effort to suppress his views via a voting system that matters even less than reddit’s. What’s more likely? That people dislike his approach, or a shadowy cabal of downvote fairies that have taken an interest in him specifically? I think the answer speaks for itself.
