    I’d say “Russian trolls”, but there’s no saying they are Russian. The view on Lemmy a few months ago was pretty homogenous - whatever happens, Kamala is lightyears ahead of Trump on anything related to sanity. Then suddenly the “Jill Stein is a russian shill” narrative came, followed by “A vote for Kamala is a vote for genocide” (while everything points to the fact that Kamala is the best option for deescalation as far as the US ballot box options go).

      The take months ago was “how dare you say anything negative about Biden, he needs to win even if it seems obvious he is gonna lose and we will blame other leftists instead of Republicans!”

      Followed by: “oh my god we were so right to get rid of him Kamala is a saint who will fix all of it and be nothing like Biden and we knew this was needed but there is no other choice needed so why talk about it”

      To now: “what do you mean we never talked about things?! We did it your way and got the best candidate ever who will do exactly as Biden did with even more reaching across the aisle for Republican support. How dare you be upset about it now! You had plenty of time to complain that last time we definitely didn’t ignore you”

      I think the people pointing out the genocide have it easiest cause they have had a single script and point for the last year that Israel has been trying to finish off their ghettos.
