I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

It's mostly information warfare from the various social media. There have already been a few analyses showing that pro-Republican anti-Democrat sentiment was algorithmically pushed on tiktok, Facebook, X(obviously), Instagram, YouTube, etc. I do believe a lot of people even here on lemmy were Russian/Chinese just stoking the flames because a divided america is good for them.
Of course there's absolutely evidence of pro-Republican, anti-Democrat manipulation. But find me evidence algorithm manipulation of pro-Palestine anti-Democrat sentiment. Otherwise you are doing some pretty hateful fearmongering.
The "everyone on here is a Russian bot" narrative here is so embarrassing. Get real.
I certainly didn't say everyone just that they're here and they enjoy stoking the flames. Propaganda is everywhere from all sides.
The "sides" are not even remotely the same
