Seriously, these guys are straight up tankies with nothing worthwhile to contribute. Can we defederate them and isolate their BS?

      What do you mean? This is the kind of Russian propaganda we should be isolating, and its spread and acceptance on lemmy.ml should be reason enough to defederate.

        I don’t know enough about any of it to care about any of it. I just don’t understand how this mindless communication on the internet that doesn’t spark any change in the real world matters. This goes for all political keyboard warriors.

          If you don’t see a problem with allowing open channels for Russian propaganda, I can’t make it any clearer to you.

            I’m saying how would I even know that that’s what it is. And if it is it’s a pretty pathetic forum to be spreading propaganda. No one in any of these threads are being persuaded by anyone. Everyone has their opinions and stick to those opinions.

              The messaging is clearly Russian state controlled, this person is either being fed talking points or, more likely, is an idiot who has bought into the propaganda hook, line, and sinker. In any event, propaganda replies on widespread communication to the masses to influence with its falsehoods, and we should be combating that as an instance by isolating it as much as possible to keep it from spreading.
