    Yep! When I used my world account I would constantly see users like FlyingSquid, PugJesus, a few admins, etc. post propaganda and dog pile any dissenters.

    The few times I posted long comments with sufficient data as a backup, I was called a Russia shill, tankie, or a secret MAGA plant.

    Now the few stragglers remaining still try to white wash their fuck ups and claim they’re leftists and whatnot. All of them just became the embodiment of Blue MAGA

      FlyingSquid was/ is one of the worst. They would regularly flame out, accuse some one of antisemitism (literally, like almost every time), then ban the counter party. Its why c/PoliticalMemes and c/World are such insufferable echo chambers.

      FlyingSquid and PugJesus posted non stop slop about the campaign constantly, it almost felt like reddit again.

      Never got banned from world, but man did I spend a solid day going around to all of these shill posters saying “I told you so” after calling out dems losing easily a year in advance.

        You know isnt it kind of interesting that they kept claiming they people like us were just “right wing shills that would disappear after the election” and yet its they who’ve disappeared from lemmy out of the blue not long after the election?
