I know they’ve always been on Lemmy, but it seems like the past few weeks it’s slowly increasing, making me want to just stay on beehaw /local. Showing up on more communities, even on instances that ban that type of trolling explicitly.
Anyone else notice this?
Note: When I’m saying Tankie here, I’m not referring to far leftists, socialists, anti-capitalists, etc. I’m talking about trolls that act leftist but their actual intent is to cause infighting and support authoritarian regimes. Sealioning, all that stuff.
I haven’t noticed much of an uptick per se, at least in the posts I’ve seen browsing all. There was a recent uptick in low-effort America bad posting out of certain communities, but I haven’t seen much in the way of red fascist bs.
