You don’t even realise it but your quality of rhetoric is devolving.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framing_(social_sciences)

Propaganda isn’t synonymous with lying you uneducated twit.

For instance Davel@lemmy.ml did the exact same type of spamming of “don’t vote genocide joe” and later anti-harris articles. Are any of those untrue? No. Did it help Trump win? Yes. (No matter how marginal the effect.) He also claimed to be American, when he painfully clearly isn’t.

So yah, the quality of your rhetoric is going down. Maybe take a breather, have some krokodil, go to bed and try again tomorrow.

How do you think disinfo and misinfo shows up?

Oh you don’t think about it?

That’s why.

or spammy stuff.

He posts so much he doesn’t even have time to read the articles. Yet you pretend it isn’t spam.

Zzzzzzzzzzz

Grow up

After like a dozen times of talking about how he can’t possibly read those articles he’s spamming, how do you think he would form his own opinion, when he doesn’t even read the articles?

You know this. You can try to draw this out as long as you want, but you’re just going around in circles, pretending not to see the obvious. It’s pathetic.

How do you think Russian disinfo and misinfo shows up online? Do you think they post “You should support Putin!” posts? That’s a rhetorical question, I know you will never answer any of this.

The childish avoidance was quite charming the first year or two, but now it’s getting just kinda tiresome.

“Oh Russian propaganda? No but everyone has an agenda, so Russian propaganda is nothing more than than that!”

See before; “this is the rhetorical equivalent of fighting 5-year olds”

“Harassed”, sure buddy.

Dude makes 12 posts an hour, every hour, for months, and calling him out on it is harassment?

So by calling me out now, aren’t you harassing me?

When you browse new, he’s all you see.

Stop being obtuse and pretending there aren’t bad actors.

Hey if you’re bothered, you can just block me. ;>

You don’t think disinformation online is everyone’s problem?

Or are you gonna hope that by having ignored the questions in the last comment about you maintain your extraordinary cognitive dissonance, I’m gonna accept the implication that it isn’t spam?

If you’re getting so upset online, maybe take a break from it?

So you’re still maintaining that propaganda doesn’t exist?

It’s not a newsbot just posting articles as they come out. It’s not a person reading articles and sharing interesting content.

It’s a person spamming pre-selected articles without even reading them. Thus they’re not adding anything, because they don’t even understand what the thing is they’re posting. They’re spamming.

If it was a person who posted the things he read, it would be different. But it’s not. It’s clearly spam with an agenda, and again, if you can’t see it, I can’t help you. Perhaps try taking some media literacy courses?

Then again, to be honest, I think you completely understand my point and this is the same age old tired bad faith bullshit.

But me commenting on three “cross-posted” posts about how this guy is spamming, that’s spam. But his posts, which far outnumber my comments, are not spam, but my criticism of his spam is?

Honestly, how do you manage such cognitive dissonance?

No need to follow anyone around. You never browse new? He spams his links, so they appear at the exact same time. He doesn’t read the things he posts, he spams. Just because you’re having a tantrum, stomping your foot and pretending he isn’t, that doesn’t change reality.

Spamming involves posting the same link or mesaage over and over again in multiple different places.

So what exactly is this then :

Hmmm…?

Pretty much the first rule of every single community on the internet that has ever existed is “no spam”.

But you’re maintaining that this account which clearly is a human and not a newsbot, isn’t wildly spamming?

Honestly, this is like the rhetorical equivalent of fighting 5-year olds. Get a fucking education man

They don’t teach you basic maths either? Ohmygod, that’s kinda horrible. How do you manage basic everyday living?

There’s like four comments from today calling out months long spam, and instantly there’s people protesting and crying and yelling.

I’m not the least bit bothered. Your projecting your emotions onto me. You are bothered. You are offended. You are mad.

And probably all because I’m right, you know it, but you also won’t even accept it to yourself. It’s pathetic, really.

You should block me probably so you don’t need to be bothered by people calling out the existence of bad actors spamming propaganda, you’ll just then get the pure propaganda. Much better, right?

You mistyped “I don’t know if you are offended”.

Because you don’t. Evidenced by the fact you think I’m offended.

I honestly wish I was. I long for the days when people were able to offend me.

Why would you think I’m offended?

You’re pretending as if it’s a person just posting interesting things they’ve read, when they’re posting an article every 12 minutes 247.

You still pretend like his spam is just “regular interests”, but my completely appropriate criticism is “getting offended”?

Have you ever tried stopping to read your comment before posting, and just having a think about what you’re implying?

Unless of course, you know it all along and do it on purpose.

“Spamming is the exact same thing as actual content”

It’s kinda boring talking to people like you, because I don’t feel like playing pretend like you do.

I don’t believe a single person actually has trouble knowing what I mean, but lots of people in bad faith will pretend as if they do.

I don’t need to even open their user profile with the amount they spam to seem like I’m “stalking” them. The front page is filled with their spam.

I don’t believe a single person actually has trouble knowing what I mean, but lots of people in bad faith will pretend as if they do.

I don’t believe a single person actually has trouble knowing what I mean, but lots of people in bad faith will pretend as if they do.

Second time is nowhere near enough.

I’m sure everyone can make up their own minds. ;>
