Be vigilant, it’s already happening here; bots and obvious state-funded trolls are in the comments.

Nothing to see here, just regular Canadians enjoying cheering for the Calgary fires hockey team, voting for the conservatives and warm water ports!

Yeah, many people here are supporting genocide or war from their respective governments. I suggest tagging them as trolls, a feature which you can enable in the Voyager app

Far better on the soul to block them outright.

Read the comments in the Canada community on Lemmy World.

We are talking about comments that are so obviously meant to provoke, stuff like “Your province never cared for you” instead of “man, I wish our government cared for us”. This is an example of reading voice, but there are plenty of examples where the information is too well-formatted or has the signs of being crafted by an LLM.

There are lots of tells, but by now it should occur to us that Canadians are being fed one line of bs, Americans another, eu yet another. All meant to divide us and put us at each others’ throats.

And at this point, it should be plain that information warfare is here to stay, so it doesn’t matter who is behind it now, because it will be someone else in a year or two.

this is speculative

edit: and non-falsifiable

double edit: interestingly, your entire line of discussion helps achieve the exact division you are proposing is the goal of the propagandists you insist are operating here.

I have seen accounts that haven’t posted in over 2 years appear immediately after the election was called and aggressively criticise Trudeau / ape for Poilievre.

I guarantee you you can and eventually will if this platform lives on. Not to mention user propoganda is not exactly much better. Keep your brain on and don’t believe any platform to be immune to garbage because they never are.

Here you get to see individuals acting in their own capacity to do the same, sometimes ironically and/or unintentionally.

I expelled ads in the 90s. I have no idea what ad you’re talking about, and I couldn’t be more pleased about it.
