Robot Diver:

would you admit that #trollfarm #psyop from #maga or internationally lies and falsely depicts #AOC's record to suppress the #left #vote?

if you do, please don't buy that manipulation anymore

most importantly:

there is a metric shitton of that lying psyop on AOC coming

absolutely nobody thinks AOC is perfect

there is no hero worship here, that's what maga morons do

understand the game of lies to elicit #toxicIdealism to suppress the vote

@RobotDiver @RegGuy

i don't really give a shit about these "they're not perfect" takes

you can find dirt on anyone

overall, #aoc and #bernieSanders are way better than any other credible challenge, and that's what matters

#toxicIdealism is a problem in this world

do not fall for it

and plenty of it is just a #socialMedia #psyop by #maga and #geopolitical #trollfarm to incapacitate your #vote

do not fall for it!

@briankrebs We should #REPORT these accounts *before* blocking (whatever it may be). That's a protection for others because many accounts are already suspended. As they grow again rather quickly, they seem to be made with automation.

@inthehands @StillIRise1963 @tarheel

why i'm posting this now

#midterms2026 means enough #democrats to stonewall #trump

but as the time draws near you will hear the same old whiny lies:

"both sides the same"

"corruption is everything"

"nothing matters"

"waah waah"

some of it is real #toxicidealism

some of it is #geopolitical #trollfarm #psyop

advertising their fake #leftist bonafides, like an american flag profile on #twitter injecting a #maga #kremlin agenda

people fall for it

@rmblaber1956 @ohmu @Kierkegaanks

everyone is aware of the #geopolitical #trollFarm #psyop on the #farRight in the #West

not many want to admit the troll farm psyop also working the #farLeft

on the right, they amplify #hate

on the left, they amplify #alienation

well, i speak from an #American perspective

in #Europe you're far more aware of the two prong approach to divide and conquer

@ohmu @Kierkegaanks

some #nonvoters are #rightWing turds too

we see the #toxicIdealism on the #left, the "it's not perfect so i won't #vote" because we're on #mastodon and in other social silos on the left, which amplifies our impression

still, it's a lot of people like that, enough to make a difference

which is why some of these toxic idealism voices we see are just #geopolitical #trollFarm #psyop, cosplaying their fake #leftWing bonafides and working hard to suppress the vote on the left

@cherylgk @mloxton @chrispomeroyhale @the5thColumnist @KathyLK

#toxicidealism on the #left is as bad a phenomenon as #MAGA on the #right

and equally prone to #manipulation by #geopolitical #trollfarm

with MAGA the manipulation is to champion #bigotry and make the #bigot feel safe

with the left the #psyop game is to demand absolute #ideological #purity in high holy fire and brimstone fury, and use that emotional high to detach, alienate, not #vote

and lose

in reality

which is what matters

@KathyLK @madrobin

i like your post, however:

"I don't know any #idealistic left non-voters"

oof

#toxicidealism is a huge huge problem with people who don't #vote on the #left

so much so that #geopolitical #trollfarm target this unfortunate character aspect just as much as they target #MAGA with #bigotry

@Lstn2urmama @chad

you see #socialmedia organized #psyop the same way you spot transgressive people:

#DARVO

deny

attack

reverse victim & offender

any sort of claim that boils down to "no, you!", blankly discarding the obvious, and accusing the victim for what an offender does to them-

you have your #russian #trollfarm

and don't forget the #whataboutism

the arguments that don't look to right and wrong

but depend on topic change to "but someone else did the wrong thing, so question that"

@BenAveling @RonSupportsYou @me

this is true for the #GOP and #geopolitical #psyop #trollfarm who pushed the #toxicidealism angle- the malice that you refer to

they amplified the "#harris doesn't speak forcefully enough on #gaza, so don't #vote"

they understood the true effect: #trump wins

and they laugh all the way to the bank, because, unfortunately, these entitled, privileged morons who feel they can afford to not vote are real #americans, as stupid and as easy to manipulate as #MAGA

@SETIEric

it's emotion driven #socialmedia #psyop

much of it straight up #MAGA #agentprovocateur and #russian #trollfarm

and also, of course, those #western dum dums who lack critical thinking skills being herded as useful fools, to help bring #trump back to the #whitehouse, and make #palestinian lives much worse

but they don't see how them not voting is the whole point

their hearts are good

they care and they should care about #gaza, we all should

but their brain matter is missing

@dzwiedziu @mosseri

i was trying to be generous

but yes, #facebook and #twitter are ground zero for the destruction of #american #democracy via #rightwing #lies, #russian #trollfarm, and assorted #firehoseoffalsehood #disinfo and #psyop

Trump said "finish the problem" about Gaza in March. He would greenlight #Netanyahu for #Israel to max out #genocide on #Palestinians

So you're asserting your single-issue concern as more important than other issues and you're even wrong on that one issue

Biden sucks, but Trump and Biden are the only two who have a chance of winning. Again: #strategy, not #emotion

#Emotional #manipulation is how #geopolitical #trollfarm moves to topple #American #democracy, those #trolls are here on #Mastodon
