Has anyone else noticed this, across the fediverse, Lemmy specifically. A lot of new users, but also a lot of first posts that are very inflammatory/rage baity.

Do we have another legit influx of new users? Or do we just have some bad actors trying to stir the pot? Or maybe I'm imagining it.

Bots originating in russa, china, etc, etc spreading social unrest

Those countries want to divide us and it’s working

What has ended up happening in the replies to this comment is exactly what OP was talking about.

That's true in most places, but until now it's been relatively quiet I'm here on the fediverse

We have a saying "People who think too highly of themselves and can't fix their problems will always make up a bogeyman to blame"

Did the tankies lead you to support the genocide? Did the tankies keep you from keeping Israel/US accountable for their crimes?

No buddy, your "countries" did those all on their own and were proud of it. The countries are only changing their tone as the hypocrisy is failing to keep up with the lies.

But you do you. You're such good guys and have never done bad to anyone else and also "never" fought among yourselves.

If it takes some Chinese and Russian trolls to divide you, you're never really "together" bud. But again whatever makes you sleep at night.
