They are not only shitposting but also mass brigading, running down discussions to the ground.

    considering that racism, homophobia ect are aginst the code of conduct of lemmy, can you provide evidance of the red flags? (which i interperate as racism, homophobia ect) (or are the redflags not in the posted content/comments, but are the attitudes of these people?)

      This whole thread about HK rioters and CIA puppets https://lemmy.ml/post/59024 gets raided by brainwashed Western neo liberal pseudo intellectual bots, manipulating likes and dislikes, trying to convert Lemmy into the same Western hegemonic shilling echo chamber that reddit r/worldnews is, for example.

      One person today came, spammed comments and harassed me with anti Indian slurs, acted like a true homophobe and did this using two accounts. I pinged the admins to get this racist banned.

      Pseudo intellectualism comes from exactly what the word means - people who act like they know everything when they do not, and dunk down on it hard. These are the same people you find on Twitter or reddit flaming comment sections. These are sometimes the r/conspiracy and the MAGA people.

      How do I know this? I am an internet dinosaur from India, who has used the internet and participated in forums, Western diaspora, Asian communities and so on for a couple decades, not including the personal one-to-one interactions I have with people daily from Middle East, SE Asia, West, EU and so on.
