Anti Canadian sentiment (lemmy.ca)

I've opened Lemmy today to lots of anti Canadian sentiment on any recent comments about how messed up 'murica is and it's constant attacks on Canadian sovereignty.

Don't get sucked in. Let them yell into a void. The online campaign has begun in earnest on Lemmy and it's time to point it out and recognise it for what it is.

These are not real people. They are actors trying to affect our decisions as always happens when American exceptionalism is challenged. Our government had the balls to stand up and say no. We have the balls to do the same. They do not like it and will attack you for it.

Don't fall for the bait.

This is how it started with trump in America. The social media brigades and odd social networking that just seems illegitimate. It's sad watching CA Europe getting bombarded with the same methods they used in America. I'm watching it happen to you guys the same way it happened here.

Start planning now. Observe silently and don't participate in their theater. It's meant to entice you they are fueled by reaction to it. Observe silently and plan so that you can always be ready. They will always turn any real talk into pointless debate. There is never a way to talk a real conversation with these people and that's on purpose. I've been dealing with these people since 2016. It's like a full-time job keeping my guard up against the manipulation.
