Don't be silly. Those comms are filled with people who could no longer stand reddit-brained commenters shouting all the pro-US propaganda.
The belief that all political dissenters of the DNC are somehow trained or foolish monkeys tricked by the wiles of a foreign country is itself a powerful propaganda point. Now i don't expect you to believe that just cuz i said it, but if i were right, what might such propaganda achieve? Does it perhaps cause you to consider all criticisms of the DNCs policies as "russian prop" and then not read more? If it does, is it a "thought terminating cliche? "
After all, you believe it somehow (even though thinking through it would dismiss the idea as ridiculous) and i bet you're a smart person generally.
You might think I'm a ruskie no matter what but consider my POV. I left reddit because i couldn't stand the politics there, only to have those politics follow me and scream that im some agiprop to fool them.
No, no, i don't want anything to do with the childish US-centric worldview of reddit. Its not about them cats, i did it for my sanity, cuz the shit redditors say hurts my soul. I leave to find people who think like i do only to have the most strident screamers follow me. No, screamers, you arent my target, you goldarn children are my endless headache
I don't want people to change their politics i want them to stop filling my feed and inbox with stupid bullshit.
