    Your definition of supporting is not supporting the US and Israel vs Iran War II. So yes, I can believe that.

    What I can’t believe is trolls would bother to work little old lemmy threads to work up cause for war.

    Such a fun war for your patrons, the US and Israel, as Iran can’t fight back in any real way. Planes are fun.

      If you can’t believe paid shills and other bad faith operators are present on lemmy, then you’ve really not been paying much attention…

        Apparently, the interactions I’ve had on this have left me convinced there are influence agents, and I may even have had an ai chatbot arguing with me. Either than or a very lazy influence operative.

        You wouldn’t think they would bother in such granular detail as working lemmy but I guess with automation and ai there is no limit, social media will be rendered useless from them at some point. It’s already over half of accounts that are thought to be fake, influence agent accounts. Over half of all internet content is written by machines too I believe if I have the statistic right.
