I suspected that many of the accounts were Russian plants or Trump supporters trying to divide the Democrat vote. Most of the time when I checked account age they were made either that day or the day before.
I know that Lemmy is new and all but still was sus.
I haven't gone back to accounts to see if they are still active. I suspect that they aren't.
I suspect that what we saw here on lemmy were actual people who had been indoctrinated elsewhere.
Lemmy isn't really big enough to be a target for bots and so on.
Bots are cheap to write. That's naive to think there wasn't a disinformation war going on with bots being on the forefront of it.
