    You’d be a lot more effective if you just shared the polls right away.

      I still think I’m very effective. Don’t be swayed by a downvote botnet, look for the signs of organic behavior.

        no one’s programming a botnet over your attitude. people are just trying to gently encourage a less snotty behavior

          No no no, people can’t possibly dislike his comments. It has to be a coordinated effort to suppress his views via a voting system that matters even less than reddit’s. What’s more likely? That people dislike his approach, or a shadowy cabal of downvote fairies that have taken an interest in him specifically? I think the answer speaks for itself.

          They’re programming a botnet to push their political agenda. Mostly Tankies do it. This happens to overlap with Luigi Worship because they’re pushing the narrative that he is some kind of patron saint of the working class murdering authorities and tearing down the state with violence even though he himself probably has no such goals or opinions.

          Tankies would love that outcome. Tankies want the USA to destroy itself.

          If you really don’t think botnets exist on lemmy fr everything from posts, comments, and votes then you’re supremely naïve.

          And to be clear I am not calling every Luigi supporter a bot. I am saying it isn’t organic for every voice of reason to go 3 - 34 in a few minutes.

            no i know botnets exist here. i had to take time away from here because of how insane things were getting in the run up to the election. but what people are saying, including me in another comment, is that we are trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. i read your comment about polling data and took interest, did a search, couldn’t find anything, and the asked you, the person who already had access to the intel to help me out. your response was to be snotty. then someone else provided some guidance about how the reason everyone is downvoting you is that your snottiness is unpleasant and you literally said “no i’m an effective communicator, it’s y’all who are the problem”

            look, i’m fully done with this conversation, i just want you to know why this all happened. it was avoidable. like. to be honest once you posted the polls it did shift my perspective a bit. i even upvoted that comment. but everything else about how you’ve acted in this thread? just awful and unpleasant and really makes me want to take another hiatus because i don’t need this degree of hostility in my life. that’s why people are saying your communication style could use some work here. it’s unpleasant to the extent that it drives people away from your genuinely persuasive point.

            I literally went through all your comments on this thread and chose to downvote each one of them because you’re kind of an ass, and then laughed at the end when you’re deluding yourself into thinking it’s bots.

            Face it mate you’re just being a shit and people don’t like you.
