    Is everyone who disagrees with you a bot with an army of bots?

    Get over yourself. Lemmy is neither large enough nor significant enough to attract that kind of attention. Is it that hard to believe that there are different people with different beliefs?

    You're the reason democracies in North America are becoming increasingly polarized and radical in their beliefs.

      Never underestimate the power of information influence in social circles.

        Consider that what the above person seems to want is the reddit-logo consensus and hexbear violates that. If the see see pee wanted to influence people, why not devote more effort to Reddit where it will be more impactful instead of here?

        Of course, Reddit is full of NATO shills and the consensus that they astroturfed has been inherited by lemmy via migration, but no, we're the bots

          I don't know where you got the idea that I mean anything about a centralized foreign intelligence, or the CCP in particular, or that it would be targeting a single group lol But I really don't need to hear about your wet dreams

            Which one, dipshit? Harry Potter?

            Communists have a long history of recommending theory to read. Parenti’s Inventing Reality should fit the occasion on our end. What do you think is a good fit in this case? That you’ve actually read, of course

              Oh, you got me with the Parenti, the famous, young, unbiased author without an agenda who keeps up with today's technology. You got me there, rusty shitbag.

                I think the bias is towards empirical evidence and the agenda is creating a better world for ourselves and our descendents, but I'm just a bot beep boop.

                It’s 10 hrs later and you’ve still not offered a better book on the topic. What should we read, lib? What book do you recommend?

              Genuinely? For realsies??

              You think it's garbage and low effort simply because you disagree, pretending that you know better, but look at your comment. You don't know me yet you reply with a genuinely stupid take like a genuine smoothbrain.

                It's garbage and low effort because it's an excuse for you to act stupid, like all thought terminating cliches. It betrays a lack of effort in general, not just with posting the comment.

                Genuinely? For realsies??

                Seriously if you're going to get in your feelings THIS hard, you should at least put some effort in. Do you find slapfights satisfying?

                  Funny, because that statement didn't come out of nowhere and it's not an empty statement. $100 says your beef was with the wording itself because if I reframed it any other way using a different context as analogy, you'd probably agree with it

                  It betrays a lack of effort in general

                  I honestly I don't think you're worth the effort lol I think you put even less effort in trying to understand

                  Do you find slapfights satisfying

                  And you with the endless shitposting, kettle? Let's be real, you're past uni, you need to let that childish shit go among other things

                    Your ass; it's filled with shit

                    Is this really all you have to say? Raging at me line by line with nothing more substantial than the same stabbing in the dark you use every time you're upset on the internet? I'm criticizing your specific behaviors and you're offering me a free 100 bucks if you can't reword your paranoid sinophobia in such a way that I'll agree with it.

                    Well fuck it, son. You're on. I'll give you a whole ten chances. Go.

                        That's the second time you've called me the kettle. You absolute buffoon. It's the pot that calls the kettle black. Who could ask for a more poetic example of you talking completely out of your ass?

                        A semicolon isn't for cadence. I used it to separate my responses to both parts of your sentence.

                        You're criticizing nothing worth criticizing.

                        You call anyone who disagrees with you a bot. This is infantile behavior. The fact that you, the infant, don't see a problem with it is the problem itself.

                        Unfortunately for you, I have a sweet catch 22 that says you're not worth the effort. Gasp! All dressed up and nowhere to go. :( Convenient, isn't it? But no, really, I wish those 10 whole paragraphs wouldn't go to waste explaining modern-day propaganda with distributed efforts by both pros and amateur groups. So slap fights & shitposting it is

                        Scrawlings of the utterly deranged. And where did you get the impression that I found your slapfighting (and don't pretend you've ever interacted with good faith in these situations you hollow brained lib) anything other than worthy of scorn? Stop it then.

                        Quote me where I said it was the fucking CCP

                        Okay, sorry. You're an unhinged paranoid that uses baby brain excuses to sequester yourself in an information bubble and it's THE OTHER Asiatic race that's lurking behind every corner. I should have been more precise in representing your view.

                          thatsthejoke.jpg

                          talking completely out of your ass

                          That poop finger must taste so good

                          You call anyone who disagrees with you a bot

                          thatsanotherjoke.jpg I didn't come up with the idea of bots. You all did and I ran with it lol

                          don’t see a problem with it is the problem itself

                          Bruh, you don't see the jokes, you just see problems LOL Incredible

                          Stop it then.

                          Shut up stupid commie, like you have anything to say. Don't think I didn't catch you getting all uppity and formal to sound smart. Put on a powdery wig, a fancy dress, I'll slap your ass and call you a macaroni

                          THE OTHER Asiatic race that’s lurking behind every corner

                            So what was the point of you offering me 100 dollars? Am I getting my 100 dollars?

                            We can have our hug about agreeing that the joke here is that you're stupid, but you still offered yourself a challenge and me a bet. If you forfeit I still want my money. The bet was that you could do something. Backing down means you can't and I win. Should I DM you my paypal or something?

                              After a heavy sigh, I've come to realize that you just didn't get the point of the hyperbole and you're earnestly awaiting the $100 and that's pretty sad. But because you're a stubborn macaroni, you just can't let it go and that's alright. We're all a little challenged in some ways, like me with regurgitating the name of a book you won't give two shits about, and you, with figure of speech

                              Backing down means you can’t and I win.

                              And I'm the infant LOL

                              Should I DM you my paypal or something?

                              Just the nudes, pls

                                You bet me, I accepted. What happened to your rule based order, liberal?

                                Why don't you keep your money by actually accomplishing what you said you could?
