Another noob here but lemmyist for years. Recently saw the light. I do see rightwingers of all kinds pop up (not here) rn in what I perceive to be strategic opinion shifting either with reddit-radicalized "centrists", paid actors or bots. A lot of them have zero posts, some have only anti china, anti russia posts and are 4 weeks old and the mods wont do anything.

With palestine discussion escalating, I assume they're mass manipulating to manage lemmy's political stance. Most obvious is the outright manipulation on feddit.org with outright propaganda being pushed, which is kind of on par for germany though.

Just sharing my recent exp. Not trying to make a particular point. :)
