    Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse. We need to discuss ways to combat this. One group- memes or something is wholly controlled by Chinese state actors. What do you think?

      Treat it like a troll post. Downvote and move on, if the name becomes familiar block them.

      This goes for all propaganda not just the stuff you are against.

          Lemmy was created by Chinese state actors, so no surprise there.

              You can safely assume that anything on .ml or lemmygrad is. Just don't subscribe to them. I can give you a block list that encompasses most of the ones who don't stay nicely in .ml land. We should have shareable block lists like BlueSky to get new users up and running quickly. I hope that PieFed eventually does some stuff like this.

                    I wouldn't say necessarily China controlled. Social engineering is great for making people replicate the engineering without noticing.

                    But indeed I notice a lot of posts that benefit China since I joined in some years back (thanks Spez), specially in news and country-specific communities.

                      Everything in the world is propaganda or advertising. You have a choice to believe it or not.

                        Plenty of Russian propaganda too. Every "conservative" community or server is essentially acting in Putin's favor.

                              That assumes you accurately define propaganda. I think we've all faced half baked allegations as such, and had people vote with the accuser, you want everyone to be seperated from each other on here because they misunderstood a point, or understood different facts, or because they are a dumbass on a different topic?

                              Just downvote, and move on, unless the person is stalking you, looking at you hexrat, or whatever fucking mammal.

                                  Unfortunately I'm not sure how you could handle all propaganda. As long as you have oligarchs and states it will exist.

                                    Lemmy.ml is?!? That's who I signed up for though. I like the privacy stuff. So which instance is politically neutral but technically aligned, pirate party, self hosting etc?
