Ita crazy how most every post I come across expecting to see people fighting underneath it is posted by this person. It seems they’re only here to cause unrest.
Yogthos is a Communist that tends to post Agitprop, yes. The goal isn’t the unrest, but the outcome of that unrest.
If you prefer to see posts and comments which only regurgitate one single opinion, literally all other social networks are better at that. Lemmy is not a good pick for the echo chambers. Reddit for example seems to have single orthodoxy on the Ukraine war.
Ok yeah but this dudes whole gimmick is posting unpopular opinions without ever seeing the other side. I get having a differing opinion here and there but when you’re whole personality is just ‘what everyone else thinks is wrong’ is crazy to me. I genuinely have never seen this person post something the majority agrees with.
Granted I’ve never just went through his profile, but when I go through my feed and see a post that’s trying to stir up people, 90% of the time it’s Y
I agree that these opinions seem unpopular. But I am not sure if they are. Most people oppose war and even in the Ukrainian war, they support some realistic way of stopping it. Its the job of popular media to make sure that these people feel alone in their opinion and that they believe that most hate the other side. Then there seems to be popular support and funding of the war effort. Good read that you might already know is Manufacturing consent by Noam Chomsky. The sole reason I’m on lemmy is because it still has some realistic community, unlike other sites which just have bots spamming the ‘popular’ opinion. For example where I’m from the correct opinion is to support Israel in all its efforts against Gaza. If one were to read the comments on common articles, which are trying to apologize or shift the blame to others for Israeli war crimes, he would find very strong hate of the clear victims. Yet Ukrainians, all not just the victims, have almost ideological support here. Again something found in Chomskys book regarding unworthy victims.
