    I say I’m confident that there’s a big shilling operation on Lemmy because the behavior of the accounts doesn’t make sense.

    You have an overinflated sense of the importance of lemmy.

    They don’t want to talk about Ranked Choice Voting.

    Because it’s a fucking pipe dream that does nothing about the current election, which is the subject at hand.

    They don’t want to talk about Ralph Nader or the Green Party

    Yes, no one wants to talk about someone whose political relevance ended in 2000. It must be a massive international conspiracy.

    I’ve straight-up asked some of these people, what do you think about this or that leftist issue, what can I do to help make the voting system better, and no one has an answer.

    Because thy know it’s not getting better, and Democrats are taking advantage of a broken system. Bein’ like “what are you gonna do about the problem we created and perpetuate?” is just gloating.

    The reasons not to vote for Biden are super passionate and super polished.

    “I can’t rebut my opponent’s arguments” is not evidence of a conspiracy.

    Who cares. I don’t know. Let’s get back to what’s really important: Not voting for Biden. That’s what I’m here to talk about today

    Is OP doing that? Am I?

    And, they seem genuinely not to give a shit if people don’t like them – like OP posting come rain or come shine several comically transparent anti-Biden stories, every single day, like it’s… well, like it’s his job.

    One guy posts poll results you don’t like. Must be a paid shill.

    IDK, maybe that gets into tinfoil hat territory, but I will say for myself that there are a bunch of particular accounts that I’m extremely convinced are part of an organized effort to influence the discourse.

    Yes, I’d say it does. Disagreeing with you is not evidence of some massive conspiracy to influence the election through a fledgling platform full of stubborn centrists.
