I’ve seen several references to some sort of rift between the users of these instances today. What’s happening?

    This post is a good example of said slander/infighting, as MLs are inherently not dogmatic, and having consistent values is painted as being homogenous.

            Not kidding, they’re everywhere. Those posts taunting Americans for not resisting? Russians. Those posts encouraging violence? Russians. Those posts urging you to give up, it’s already over? Russians. Those posts saying America will never do anything to punish MAGA? Russians.

            We saw it all over Reddit, before the 2024 election. I got real good at spotting them ( new account, nothing but negative posts, no care about downvoted, illogical arguments, just to argue and waste time, etc) and used to call them out by addressing their supervisors, knowing they were monitoring responses, saying I already pegged this new account as an obvious Russian Propaganda Farmer, and he’s doing such a terrible job that he should be sent to the beet canning factory instead. It was often that person’s last post, under that handle, at least.
