Non-russian, non-bot, pro-Ukrainian, pro NAFO checking in.
And yes, I have noticed that there is a shit ton of right-wingers and anti-West posters on Lemmy. They do not stand up to scrutiny however. Kind of seems like a half-assed bot presence but who the hell knows?
Non-russian, non-bot, pro-Ukrainian, pro NAFO checking in.
idk man, sounds like something a bot would say, i think everyone in here's a bot in one way or another lol.
and pro nafo? kinda cringe tbh. i support the ukrainian people and feel for the russian people who have to suffer their government.
still tho ye i can agree that there's a bit of bias (specifically there's 2 biases) but you can get past the biases by sifting out the bias from 2 opposing articles and just looking at facts.
It's not bots, but before the massive Reddit migration most of lemmy.ml was pro-Russian
Yogthos and GiorgioPerlasca are the two I blocked and things are a whole lot less pro-Russian-garbage. Still see the negatives since other post, but those two only cite pro-Russian sources
Well, I could use some help to post more pro-Ukraine news and videos!!!
Can you give an example of an anti-Ukraine post here?
All the posts by Yogthos, for some examples. But as Zabadoh helpfully pointed out, because I am from a federated instance I am not seeing all posts in this community. Maybe Yogthos is one of the only users posting in a way that is shared across instances. I don't yet understand the mechanics of Lemmy enough.
I looked at his last few posts and they're from the Guardian and the New York Times?
I just noticed that you're viewing this from another instance.
Generally speaking, not all posts in a /c are visible outside of that instance, i.e. the distribution of federated content is not consistent.
I quote the following post a lot, but this thread is supposed to explain it: https://lemmy.ml/post/1408175
If you want to read all posts in this /c, make yourself a lemmy.ml account, and you'll see that there are quite a lot of pro-Ukraine posts in this /c
Great info, thanks for the enlightenment Zabadoh!
I was wondering why there was so much of that
I think you're right
Idk but Youthos is a bot for sure.
Nah he's just got some weird ideas, but you'll see him in other threads showing more than 4 IQ
