All I see here is anti-Ukraine spam posted by the same few accounts. Seems clearly biased.

Any humans in here that can chime in?

    Yogthos and GiorgioPerlasca are the two I blocked and things are a whole lot less pro-Russian-garbage. Still see the negatives since other post, but those two only cite pro-Russian sources

    Non-russian, non-bot, pro-Ukrainian, pro NAFO checking in.

    And yes, I have noticed that there is a shit ton of right-wingers and anti-West posters on Lemmy. They do not stand up to scrutiny however. Kind of seems like a half-assed bot presence but who the hell knows?

      idk man, sounds like something a bot would say, i think everyone in here’s a bot in one way or another lol.

      and pro nafo? kinda cringe tbh. i support the ukrainian people and feel for the russian people who have to suffer their government.

      still tho ye i can agree that there’s a bit of bias (specifically there’s 2 biases) but you can get past the biases by sifting out the bias from 2 opposing articles and just looking at facts.

    I just noticed that you’re viewing this from another instance.

    Generally speaking, not all posts in a /c are visible outside of that instance, i.e. the distribution of federated content is not consistent.

    I quote the following post a lot, but this thread is supposed to explain it: https://lemmy.ml/post/1408175

    If you want to read all posts in this /c, make yourself a lemmy.ml account, and you’ll see that there are quite a lot of pro-Ukraine posts in this /c

    I was honestly wondering the same thing. It seems like everything out of this instance is pretty much all anti-west. They’re constantly praising Russia and China. This whole place seems completely detached from reality.

      I think he’s a real person but he’s the most obvious soldier of the 50 cent brigade I’ve seen in a long time.

      Nah he’s just got some weird ideas, but you’ll see him in other threads showing more than 4 IQ

      All the posts by Yogthos, for some examples. But as Zabadoh helpfully pointed out, because I am from a federated instance I am not seeing all posts in this community. Maybe Yogthos is one of the only users posting in a way that is shared across instances. I don’t yet understand the mechanics of Lemmy enough.
