    I suspect that what we saw here on lemmy were actual people who had been indoctrinated elsewhere.

    Lemmy isn’t really big enough to be a target for bots and so on.

      Bots are cheap to write. That’s naive to think there wasn’t a disinformation war going on with bots being on the forefront of it.

        Hmm, I’m not naive enough to believe that Lemmy is free from disinformation and bad actors, but I would be surprised if it was targeted by sophisticated state actors.
