I'm surprised they require the help of the public. Wouldn't a single secret firm with like 1000 accounts be more secure and not let stories like this surface? For as bad as it is, having their postboosting require members of the public is sort of more moral since it does require them to have public support to some degree to work. More moral but also more able to be outed, like here, and used against them as bad publicity.

I didn't support Harris. I voted Socialist. Am pro-third party. Always have been.

What's really funny and ironic to me is that before the election--and just because I didn't support Harris--many on Lemmy thought that I was getting paid by Trump and/or Russia to post. They insisted that I was working for Trump or the Russians. There was even a guy who bragged about creating a program to track all my posts and downvote them, and then he offered the program to other people here. And he STILL insists that I am getting paid by Russia, even after the election! (Hi @pooperNickel@lemm.ee)

All just because I didn't wasn't going to vote for Harris and I posted articles that Trump was gaining on Harris in the polls--which turned out to be correct, by the way. I didn't vote for Trump either tho! lmao

And here we are, reading proof that it was actually the Harris campaign doing that was doing all the fuckery. lolololololol

I think there were people from her campaign that were actively working with mods on lemmy.world to ban anti-Harris people as well.

All that shady shit, and she still ended up losing the electoral AND the popular vote. lol
