I notice a large number of ragebait-y political communities being spun up by new users with thousands of posts & ai profile header photos. I notice comment sections are more acrimonious, and foreign disinfo talking points are circulating a lot more prolifically than before the US election started ramping up.

Anyone else notice this? Any idea on how to combat it on this platform? Are there any communities built around creating block lists of obvious troll/ai/disinfo accounts & communities?

    First time?

    Don’t worry, day after the election they mysteriously vanish as if they were never real at all.

    Would be crazy if it were all just disinformation campaigns throwing shit at each other for 12 months.

    Luckily no one’s stupid enough to fall for all that.
