    I’m unsure why your favorite pastime is writing 7 paragraph long essays that fail basic fact checks which sole purpose appears to be to defend Joe Biden committing Genocide.

      1. Favorite pastime
      2. I’m a little skeptical that it’s any kind of productive use of time, too, but someone is paying for organized propaganda operations on Lemmy which honestly is a little surprising to me but seems to indicate that it has an impact on elections to some extent, so maybe me doing work to debunk it is worthwhile, too
      3. I have untreated mental illness that causes me to spend time on it, out of all possible proportion to how much I should spend

      Pick 2

      IDK, maybe pick 3

        is there any proof of this at all?

        I hope it’s not the second because thinking that people opposing Genocide is actually a paid propaganda campaign is dumber than the people who believe there’s a pedo ring in the Pizza hut basement

          Don’t make me ask the LLM for a follow-up report on how you’re doing at implementing its recommendations on good faith debating

          I’ll do it
