olivebranchlesser of two evils
21 day old account. Most posts are about not voting in the election to support Palestine.
While what’s happening in Gaza is genocide, this account smells like a Russian shill trying to spread FUD in the form of memes.
The key part of diplomacy is not running around telling everyone what’s being discussed in private. We shouldn’t hear about potential deals until they are decided on. If Trump wins, he’ll do the same thing Israel is currently doing to eliminate Hamas - which is to go through the Palestinian people.
After you wrote this comment, OP made a concern troll post on the Men’s Liberation community.
You were totally on point about the FUD thing.

This community sends “All lives matter” vibes. I understand that there are issues with how men are treated and there is nothing wrong with talking about it, but it does seem a little bit like a distraction from feminism issues. Women are objectively under a lot bigger threat and talking about women rights more makes a lot more sense. Of course, mentioning how men are treated is also useful, but dedicating a whole community to exactly this part of the problem seems a bit problematic. It would be more useful for it to be about general issues of gender roles or something like that, this way it seems like it is targeting feminism. Furthermore, I heard that unionbusting companies now are starting to focus on feminism, racial inclusion and etc. Because it makes everyone uncomfortable and devides people by some arbitary characteristics. That makes people less likely to unite in their common interests, because it is percieved that their interests are very different, which is not the case.
Yeah…
I’m only surprised that they shifted tactics so quickly.
Fear, Unrest, and Doubt are the key tactics in Russian Disinfo campaigns.
There’s an old axiom: If someone is trying to make you feel strongly about something, then they are trying to sell you something.
In this case, OP Is trying to piss people off in order to convince them of propaganda and Russian talking points.
This “everybody who disagrees with me is a russian shill” narrative is majorly tiresome. You need to give it up. I dont care that russia once paid a guy to write comments on reddit, that doesnt negate your responsibility to engage with all posts in good faith. You know who else was very willing to state publically that they were right about a topic? Everybody who has ever been right about something.
The thing theyre trying to “sell” you is that genocide is bad. Dont think yourself out of a good idea just because somebody else had it first.
The think they’re trying to sell everyone on is to not vote- which is exactly right-wing and Russian propaganda want.
Did you ever notice that the people they’re pleading to aren’t Trump supporters? Did you ever notice that it’s ALL “don’t vote for Biden” rhetoric?
Did you ever wonder why?
And it’s very easy to say that they’re suggesting no one vote for either, but everyone knows who they’re talking to.
