      The place that banned all criticism of Biden/Harris and then wondered where all the critics went, justifying their bad beliefs that all of them were bots? Yeah I wonder why its a shitlib utopia.

        I don’t actually recall the .world mods or admins themselves calling people bots, and I’ve recently seen them removing comments containing bot accusations.

          There is this same body of users who got all up in the 196 forced migration and subsequent drama with the blahaj instance. It is the same group of people obsessed with everything outside American politics being russian bots and chinese spies. The same folks are constantly trying to perpetuate instance wars on political propaganda grounds.

          The admins don’t, but a lot of the userbase used to (and still does) calls anyone who mildly criticized Harris as a secret Russian asset/bot, or a useful idiot who bought into the campaign.

          When Biden was bad at the debate and I said “Man he looks so unfit for this” I was called a russian bot. I reported the comments and nothing got removed or banned.

          And I recently got banned from !politicalmemes@lemmy.world because I defended myself from a moronic shitlib troll. The troll didn’t get banned, I did.

            Yep. As ya remember, I was called a bot and accused of being russian, every single post where I criticized the corrupt duopoly. Even tho I voted socialist! lmao

            .world got what they deserved in the election. They were just clueless about how bad of a take they had on things.

            OP: you were right. This is a case of PTB for sure.
