I think we should try to be more careful, not to automatically assume that everyone who is asking questions here about China/Ukraine etc. is always arguing in bad faith. I’ve seen multiple people who were genuinely trying to ask something here and the only response they got was mockery.

I do understand that a lot of times people who come here are trying to troll or just be annoying, but we still should try to engage in them in good faith as long as there is no reason not to do so. Not everyone who isn’t from Lemmygrad is someone hostile to our ideology, and we should try to be kinder to them.

    And the whole “Russian/Chinese bots” things falls pretty flat when most of our conversations are amongst ourselves as well. Why would China/Russia pay/program all these bots just to simulate conversation in the hope that some random US liberal will stumble upon a 3 week old conversation, start an argument and then get an angry response? Seems like a poor use of their time.

    I mean, I’ve literally seen someone argue that Dessalines is being threatened with murder by CPC. I wouldn’t put it past them.

      Oh sure, some of them would insist it is completely true, because it means we’re all here as a show just for them, the most special and important person ever. It strokes their ego.

      But others will look at that and (hopefully) wonder about it. It is pure conspiracy theory logic after all, and if someone starts making the most absurd claims, some will hopefully realise how nonsensical they are.
