yeah i just saw a good dozen or so comments across a few threads with a very obvious +6/-6 gotten within a few minutes where there had ben no votes before. im sure if you plot that data out compared to real activity it becomes pretty clear there’s something fishy. and an IP would certainly help too.

again no idea what kind of mod tools lemmy has this is all just conjecture on my part. but quite interesting!

Fascinating... this is what i feel this thread had happen. Some of these comment chains had tankies downvoted and sanity upvoted by 3+ margins that mysteriously flipped to 6 point margins the other way within only 3 hrs. And the sheer amount of comments on here ballooned as well. I know they follow some of us around. They can claim theyre arguing one thing or the other, but its always to spread FUD and push non-voting or third party voting in the states. Its all about fucking up our election to install our own shitty dictator before our demographics in the country shift so hard the gop never get a chance to take the oval office ever again.

If u point that out ahead of time, tho, they mass downvote u and act like ur a conspiracy theorist.

to be clear, it was just the one guy @[email protected] from my knowledge. they were just arguing (badly) and presumably got fed up with the downvotes and wrangled in their alts.

i don’t see evidence that there is more than one individual doing vote manipulation in this post at this time. not saying it doesn’t happen, just speaking in fairness.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

This is true, but how could one as not an admin see direct evidence? Im just saying what ive observed.

Maybe ur right that it is just one individual, but if so, then it means there are far more angry tankies/shills on here than in the opposite scenario im postulating exists. Not sure which would be more disheartening.
