  • Yeah. I see a surprising amount of it on Lemmy. It is behavior I’m used to seeing from the far right, Qanon, and other brainwashed vectors. I watched the Russians propagandize the right on Reddit.

    These, however, are nominal leftists engaging in stark black and white thinking. I’m not sure if they’re state level shills, bots, really believe it and are brainwashed tankies, or true believers living in China or similar. Maybe it’s dumb kids being taken in by propaganda.










  • Crazy, ain’t it? I’m pretty consistently amazed at the poor media literacy I find on Lemmy.

    Israel is obviously perpetuating a genocide.

    That being said, this source is not reliable due to obvious bias and/or being propaganda. When you see something like that you look for other sources that are fact based and dry.

    It’s weird, I see the same behaviours and fanaticism on Lemmy that I saw from Qs and f right wing nuts. Just coming from the left now. Fucking facts are getting hard to discern.

    You’re in for a fun ride, wikipedia even has an article on just this: Health and Appearance of Michael Jackson.

    In short: some kind of body dysmorphia, vitiligo, way too much money, and probably a personality disorder. He had so much plastic surgery done to his nose that the plastic actually broke through the surface of his nose. There is a lot of back and forth as to whether or not he was a child sexual predator or just trying to recapture a stolen childhood as an abused child star.




  • Yes, but we need to be very careful here. Histronics are all fine and well. However, knowing all the facts as reported by the AP or Reuters is important.

    The rank and file of the far right is going to be fed info about how he was arrested for domestic violence and had already been deported before.

    ICE wasn’t in the courtroom and didn’t cause a scene. The judge was tipped off by a clerk that they were in the building.

    We’re all very aware of the propaganda the right is fed. We need to know the facts so it doesn’t happen to us.
