Has anyone else noticed a large influx of Trolls lately?
Has anyone else noticed a large influx of Trolls lately?
This isn't about immediately filtered content, like the disgusting DuffMan George Floyd meme, or Holocaust denial. That's pretty well kept in check by mod tools. I'm also not talking about cogent or even pointed political discussion.
I'm not even talking about necessarily in this community directly, however in a lot of other spaces I've noticed a lot of accounts using divisive language and terms like "The ineffectual left" "single issue voters" "ignorant right wing morons". Lots of straw man arguments, lots of willful ignorance.
I'm not a centrist, I'm very very very far left however I know well enough not to patently dismiss the talking points of others, outside of course calls to genocide. I know what dog whistles sound like, and I'm hearing a lot of them lately.
Most egregiously I'm seeing very long form post replies that read very much like what is generated from LLMs.
So I guess my question is, how're we all fairing with what might be the largest Turing test ever?

Not feeling that, but I block hexbear and lemmygrad
Aren’t they already defederated from everything and anything in the known universe?
They're fighting to remain federated; they feel the disdain from every sane /c and can (surprisingly) see the writing on the wall this time that soon they'll have to make sockpuppet accounts if they want to continue to troll.
Where are they fighting to stay federated? They don't seem to give a shit
Yea afaik I remember reading several posts from hexbear users saying they were fine before federation and are fine with the idea of defederation. Don't know if that's representative
That's why they've started making alts on .world and .ee
