Summary
Russian official Dmitry Medvedev, a close ally of Vladimir Putin, suggested Donald Trump’s election victory may benefit Russia’s interests in Ukraine, citing Trump’s reluctance to fund “idiotic allies” and “voracious international organizations.”
Although Medvedev stopped short of celebrating, he hinted Trump’s aversion to foreign spending could weaken U.S. support for Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky cautiously congratulated Trump, recalling their recent discussion on U.S.-Ukraine cooperation.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov maintained a guarded tone, noting the U.S. remains an “unfriendly country” involved in the Ukraine conflict.
All those lemmy.ml people did their jobs bashing Harris to get trump elected.
Lemmy and the Fediverse as a whole is a microcosm that doesn’t make much of a difference one way or the other. We can stab at the tankies all we like, but it wasn’t their influence in the Fediverse that caused the result, even if they did manage to hoodwink a few into voting for fake tan man.
It wasn’t their influence alone, of course not.
They were just part of the bigger propaganda machine that infiltrated so many social media sites.
They have accounts on all major services.
Taking a broader perspective, social media and those who manipulate it played a huge role in Trump’s win. And Lemmy’s part of that, like it or not.
Because this influence campaign only took place on Lemmy /s
As far as we know, it was just one guy with a bunch of burner accounts.
That certainly is very possible. They all sound like the same person. Or, like they have a specific game plan they all have to adhere to. Almost like a job ;)
Oh please, 20 million voters that didn’t vote wasn’t affected by the rantings of a few people on Lemmy or Reddit.
And Xitter, and Facebook. They have those accounts too.
Lol y’all will never learn. This is the whole Bernie Bros cost Clinton the election. Why don’t you take a look at the real reasons she never was going to win.
Because American men won’t elect a woman
Slrpnk with Notvoting did their fair share, seeing how low the turnout was.
Nah I think it was Elon “Goebbels 2” Musk more than them. They didn’t help but he should get all the credit.
Yeah the convenient takeover of the vessel people use to express opinions was certainly a huge factor in spreading pro-trump material.
Him and Joe Rogan
That would almost be funny again. So why didn’t you vote?
I was gonna, but then some people on a forum didn’t like her.
You deserve him if THAT is what it takes.
That’s all it takes. Manipulation in your doom scroll
lol, keep the tears coming 😊😊😊
How does it feel to have zero empathy and getting off of the pain of others? You sound exactly like those who celebrate genocides.
Oh hey it’s a cunt.
Thanks for the confirmation
