Sounds like something a bot would say

Bots are using the narcissist's playbook: accuse others of your shenanigans.

Adding the Lemmy logo was really what this meme needed

Third times a charm.

This same idea was posted with this same meme template within the past day, right? I'm not having deja vu? I can't find it anywhere.

[–] PugJesus 22 points 6 months ago (1 children)

In PoliticalMemes, but it was removed for not being political(?)

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

Yeah it wasn't really political so it was taken down. Spruced it up and reposted here. 👍

Kids these days and their AI accusations. Back in my day, we assumed people who disagreed with us were uninformed, stupid, or evil.

Don't normalize this shit.

Opposing viewpoints are fine. Disingenuous viewpoints that conveniently show the egregious fallacies of that viewpoint and ignore them when pointed out deserve all the criticism they get.

And we know what one specific viewpoint we're talking about. Lemmy is so deeply infested with it now with the exact same bend that it's a disgustingly obvious disinformation campaign and voter suppression tactic.

Again, don't normalize this shit.

You're doing the thing in the meme

Dang it! I'm always out of the loop.

[–] VinnyDaCat 9 points 6 months ago (3 children)

As am I. I'm a bit curious as to which viewpoint they're discussing.

I don't think it's bad for people to be somewhat suspicious of bots/misinformation campaigns that occur online. We do know they occur.

That said, I believe we should still try to communicate on the various media platforms in the event that there is in fact a human behind the screen.

I can't blame people for thinking others are bots, especially when they make cookie cutter comments identical to so many others in nature and content. We live in a world where people have invented bots which mimic human writing to a degree of accuracy most cannot tell apart from real humans. Some of us are bots, get used to it.

[–] kernelle 12 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I definitely get why, but people have been paranoid of interacting with bots, shills or astroturfers for as long as the internet exists. Calling someone either of these without asking to elaborate on their comment is just adding to the polarisation and intolerance of our platforms.

Often when I try to talk to people with wildly different opinions they just come back with those insults because "who can ever disagree with my opinion? They must be trolling."

So I definitely blame people for jumping to the wrong conclusions.

Man, this is the best bot genetated comment i've read in a while. Which software did they use?

Don't forget to block them so that you never hear an opposing view again!

Honestly I don't see all this hade and intolerance here on lemmy.world and i've been around since last year. Can you give me some context?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (2 children)

Actual context because the other comment (e: the prettybunnys one) is clearly showing some bias:

[email protected] is constantly in turmoil against itself regarding some US electoral stuff. About once per thread (no joke) an argument gets to a point where one person accuses the other of not being human because they just can't fathom how different their positions are. This also spreads to other communities but I generally find !politicalmemes to be the primary source. (e: This also is common on .ml communities unless I am mistaken. I just am not exposed to that much since my instance does not federate with .ml.)

(Disclaimer: while funny, don't do this kind of attack without real evidence; it's generally frowned on by mods as uncivil.)

[–] pennomi 18 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Politics turns nice people into assholes real quick.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

Truly. Especially on platforms where we can't see each other's faces to remind each other we exist and might or might not have had coffee this morning.

Not denying there are bots on here of course, there definitely are, just quite a few less than the average edgy political swearing session would lead you to believe.

All opinions different from mine are wrong.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago (7 children)

there is only one opinion, all of the other opinions about everything else are wrong. Only this one is correct.

Don't worry, i won't tell you what opinion i'm talking about, because that would be another opinion, and it would be wrong, on account of the other one being the only correct one.
