I notice a large number of ragebait-y political communities being spun up by new users with thousands of posts & ai profile header photos. I notice comment sections are more acrimonious, and foreign disinfo talking points are circulating a lot more prolifically than before the US election started ramping up.

Anyone else notice this? Any idea on how to combat it on this platform? Are there any communities built around creating block lists of obvious troll/ai/disinfo accounts & communities?

      Besides a strong military ally it has indeed not had much positive impact.

        Not a jazz fan? Not a rock’n’roll fan? Not a hip-hop fan?

        How about transistors? Or the Green Revolution? Or the polio vaccine?

        Lol negative impact inexplicably doesn’t count. Our president totally having just no power to reduce or increase negative impacts. yep very intelligent viewpoint here
