    Nope. I’m definitely not a bot.

    I regularly post a lot of articles from some websites, but you will notice my patterns can be extremely irregular. There are some articles that I don’t find interesting/attractive, so I just don’t share them.

    However, I do find the rise of sophisticated bots worrying.

      How many of those are pandering to China? You left a lot of context off the post, like the population numbers And the fact that China uses slave labor

        I wonder how many accounts on Lemmy.world are cia-bots that keep repeating the `China uses slave labour" mantra

          it’s not so much CIA posts, it’s more people brainwashed by the CIA that post this

          also, my opinion on this, it’s not so much the CIA that is doing this but neoliberal organizations.

          if china’s political system prevails, that would mean an end to a lot of exploitative strategies that are employed within the US today, such as companies working for the private pockets of the rich instead of for the public good

          china’s obviously doing a lot right, including these jobs programs that build infrastructure. they’re a win-win for the people (wages + housing/transport), yet the only one who could possibly lose out because of it is private landlords and private transport providers (including the car makers)

            You’re right! Why stop at putting suicide nets at foxcon! We could make that global!

            Listen: I hate liberal capitalism as much as the next lemmy user, but lets not pretend China is some paradise of labor rights
