Honestly not sure why it hasn't been suggested that the 'no vote' bullshit was a tactic to get Repubs the win. Sure as hell worked and didn't do anything to solve the issue, as we can blatantly see now.

It has, it's been a conspiracy on lemmy for the past 6 months. Any time anyone criticized Biden or Harris for aiding a genocide someone would pop up and say they're a secret republican or Russian bot.

If I had a nickel for every time I was called one of those, I'd have enough to flee the country from Trump.

It has, constantly. Anyone who disagrees with you folks is labelled a Russian bot who wants Trump to win. Even if they fall in line they were labelled that way, just for saying things like, "I'll vote for Biden but his age is a legitimate concern."

You must be unquestioning, do not question the party! You don't wanna be one of those do you? You will vote for who we put in charge without your first amendment rights to question them!

Wasn't the idea to get the Democrats to explicitly state they were a anti genocide and promise policies to back that up?

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 11 points 8 hours ago

That was the big ask, yes.

It absolutely was. And it was pushed by tiktok, a Chinese psyop.

...that study demonstrates how Republican talking points were more easily boosted in TikTok's algorithm. As in: Republicans were better at getting their message across on social media.

It also doesn't do, in any way, what was asked: citation on how it was a Chinese psyop.
