    Also, if your vote is based on what a random Lemmy user or other social media user posts… yikes.

      It’s usually a slow trickle of slighted information that resonates with somebody until they’ve flipped to a view/position contrary to their own interests manipulated by a foreign actor. It’s why your previous posting behavior was received so negatively, as you were tripping the “trolldar” of many individuals as it seemed you were posting with a “hidden” agenda. Which I have to say, while I don’t always agree with you, your recent posting behavior and approach to discussions is no longer tripping my internal warning klaxons.

      But an even bigger example is Q-Anon, where there was a slow trickle of info that slowly worked it’s way into so many susceptible individuals.
