    I updated my comment so hopefully it’s clearer. Its well documented that Russia and China use social media to spread FUD, which undoubtedly includes the fediverse.

    This part is conjecture: it seems likely that the fediverse is an entry point for FUD because the lack of moderation and the large number of users sympathetic to their cause.

      It’s utterly convenient that your conspiracy theory allows you to dismiss those whose opinions you don’t like.

        Are you implying FUD is a conspiracy theory? Or that FUD exists on the fediverse is a conspiracy theory? Or that the recent “vote uncommitted movement is FUD” is the conspiracy theory?

        Regardless, I’m not dismissing the vote uncommitted opinion, and I certainly don’t dislike it. Even if the “vote uncommitted” movement is Russian FUD I’m all in on it, and I’m even committed to taking it a step further because I’m so upset about the Joe Biden’s extreme facists policies.
