Lmao, so on the same day that I said this, this comment of mine got 7 downvotes in a space of 2 minutes, 5 hours after I posted it, from a variety of accounts each with one- or two-word nonsense names with the first letters capitalized, perfectly evenly spread out among exactly 7 instances.
I’m honestly a little bit surprised that the actual real lemmy.ml users can’t manage to muster up enough natural downvotes to overcome me coming in and disagreeing with them, but somebody got salty enough about my comment to feel like it needed a bunch of fake downvotes. Hello @Alsephina@lemmy.ml – were those you? You posted your comment 3 minutes before the 7 fake downvotes came in. I think you need to be more subtle with your fake voting if you want people not to notice. Federated votes are not private.
(I actually don’t think that’s any kind of propaganda-bot operation; I don’t think the propaganda bots are that un-subtle, if they are actually doing any kind of fake voting. But who knows.)
(Oh, also he seems to have replied to himself from one of the fake-voting accounts, agreeing with himself about how wrong I was 😃)
Yeah looks like it they decided to suppress your good analysis. I had a bunch of lemmy.ml accounts follow me around and downvote everything I posted on an old account. They weren’t subtle that time either.
Anyway, now I’ve got you tagged too. “Too legit to quit”, see ya around Lemmytopia.
