Cool.. so people around the world support Trump.

Yeah he's kind of a figurehead for a particular mindset. I'm in Canada and there's a guy who regularly posts up in my nearest intersection for FUCK TRUDEAU and TRUMP 2024 flags.

Likely Christian Nationalism and/or xenophobia.

Big assumption this account is a real person and not another KremlinGPT bot.

This dude is real though, he’s well known in the right wing Twitter sphere and is often invited on podcasts. Why would the KGB go trough all that trouble of creating a bot when this guy will say this shit for free out of his own volition.

Thanks for letting me know. Really try to avoid that kind of person and their content.

I'm a bot because I've acknowledged that people around the world support / sympathize with Trump? C'mon man, you're better than that.

I meant the screenshot could be a bot, not you. Fair though, I could have said it more clearly. Also FWIW I didn't down vote you

[–] StaySquared 2 points 4 months ago

Oh.. derp.

No sweat. I don't care about up/down votes.

Yes you're correct, a chatbot would have better reading comprehension.

"Support" how? They can't vote here. Do they just mean spreading incendiary opinions online? Or are they actually sending a politician in another country money!? Wouldn't put that past MAGAs, though...

Support vocally? The more people shouting into the echo chamber, the louder it gets
